32B hardened hub sprockets are sprockets for 32B roller chain of 2" (50.8 mm) pitch to DIN 8187 / ISO 606, with induction-hardened teeth. They are designed for the heaviest drives - in mines, aggregate processing plants and steelworks.
32B hardened sprockets - longer life for a sprocket transmitting huge forces
In 32B drives the driving sprocket transmits huge forces, and replacing it requires a crane and shutting down the installation. Teeth hardened to 45-55 HRC significantly extend the sprocket's working life. The C45 steel hub remains soft, which lets you bore the hole and cut a keyway.
