06B-3 triplex plate sprockets

06B-3 plate sprockets are triplex plate wheels for 06B-3 chain of 3/8" (9.525 mm) pitch to DIN 8187 / ISO 606. The three tooth rims work with a triplex chain, which transmits much more power than a simplex chain.

06B-3 triplex plate wheels - high load capacity with a small sprocket diameter

When the machine has no room for a larger pitch, a triplex 3/8" chain gives high load capacity with small sprocket diameters and smooth running. A plate wheel without a hub gives full mounting freedom, and C45 steel is easy to machine and weld.

06B-3 triplex plate wheels in C45 steel, with unhardened teeth. 06B simplex and duplex plate wheels can be found in the neighbouring subgroups.

Preheating a thick 06B-3 plate wheel before welding - frequently asked questions

Does a thick plate wheel need preheating before welding?

For larger plate wheels we recommend preheating - it reduces stresses and the risk of cracking in the weld zone.
