Sprocket 06B-3 z=76 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 06B-3 z=76, with hub

The sprocket 06B-3 shown is a triplex (three-strand) sprocket with 76 teeth, made with a hub, for chain with a pitch of 3/8" / 9.53 mm. Manufactured in accordance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606 from C45E structural steel (EN 10083-1), without tooth hardening - as a Polish manufacturer, Ozdowski supplies an economical version that is fully dimensionally interchangeable with the hardened variant of the same pitch.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How does one duplex sprocket differ from two independent simplex sprockets on a common shaft?

A duplex sprocket is a single, monolithic toothed rim serving a duplex chain, in which both strands are mechanically integrated in one component. Two independent simplex sprockets on a common shaft serve two completely separate simplex chains - these solutions are not interchangeable without changing the chain type.

How long can a sprocket be kept in storage without losing its properties?

A properly preserved sprocket (dried, coated with grease or anti-corrosion oil, stored in a dry room) can be kept in storage for many years without any loss of its mechanical parameters. The only risk is surface corrosion due to improper storage - it does not affect the tooth geometry, but it is advisable to clean the sprocket and preserve it again before installation.

Can I replace a simplex sprocket with a duplex one without changing the other drive components?

No - switching to a duplex chain and sprocket requires replacing the entire set (the sprockets on both sides of the drive and the chain) with a duplex version of the same pitch, because the rim spacing and chain width differ from those of the simplex version.

When is it worth considering a sprocket made of reinforced steel for heavy-duty operating conditions?

In heavy dust, with powerful jerks (e.g. in presses) and wherever a breakdown in the middle of the season is not an option, sprockets made of higher-strength quenching and tempering steel or a variant with hardened teeth are often a good solution - it is worth consulting the supplier in the case of unusual operating conditions.

Where is this product used?

This type of sprocket is used in drives of agricultural and industrial machinery, including screw and bucket conveyors, feed conveyors, packaging machines and internal transport systems.
