16B (1") tandem sprockets

16B tandem sprockets drive two 16B-1 simplex chains of 1" (25.4 mm) pitch to DIN 8187 / ISO 606. This is the largest tandem size in our range, designed for heavy conveyors and drives transmitting high torques.

16B tandem sprockets with a large Taper-Lock seat for heavy conveyors

Large Taper-Lock seats allow the sprocket to be mounted on a large-diameter shaft without machining the bore and removed without a puller - a real time saver with heavy assemblies. For work in dust and frequent starts you can choose a sprocket with hardened teeth, and for wash-down lines - a stainless steel sprocket.

Tooth rim spacing and other questions about 16B tandem sprockets

Which tooth rim spacing should I choose?

The spacing must match the mating sprockets in the drive. A larger spacing leaves more room between the chains, which may be needed for guards and guides.
