Sprocket 085-1 (1/2") z=54 plate wheel, C45 steel

Product Description

Sprocket 085-1 (1/2") z=54 plate wheel, C45 steel fits 085-1 roller chain (European standard DIN 8187 / ISO 606), single-strand (simplex), with a pitch of 12.7 mm (1/2"). It has 54 teeth and is made of C45 steel.

The plate wheel has a pilot bore of Ø20 mm. It can be bolted or welded to your own hub, flange or drum, which makes it a good choice for larger ratios and non-standard designs.

Technical data

Applications

It works in small chain transmissions, feeders and traverse mechanisms where a compact design matters. Plate wheels are often mounted on drums and flanges and in large reduction gears.

Frequently asked questions

Which chain does the 085-1 z=54 sprocket fit?

085-1 roller chain to European standard DIN 8187 / ISO 606, with a pitch of 12.7 mm. A simplex sprocket requires a single-strand (simplex) chain.

What is the difference between the 085-1 sprocket and the 08B-1 sprocket if they have the same pitch?

Both sprockets have a pitch of 12.7 mm (1/2"), but they are designed for different chains. The 085-1 chain has an inner width of 6.4 mm and a roller diameter of 7.75 mm, while the 08B-1 chain has an inner width of 7.75 mm and a roller diameter of 8.51 mm. That is why the 085-1 sprocket has a narrower toothed rim (5.9 mm instead of 7.2 mm) and should not be used with 08B-1 chain, nor should these series be interchanged.

When does a sprocket need replacing?

It should be replaced when the teeth start to look like pointed shark fins or are clearly bent to one side. Running on such a profile quickly destroys even a new chain, so a worn sprocket must be replaced.

Can a new chain be fitted on a worn sprocket?

This should not be done. A worn sprocket has a changed tooth profile, so a new chain runs unevenly and elongates quickly. The rule is: new chain - new sprockets.

What causes wear on the sides of the teeth?

Most often misaligned sprockets. The chain does not run straight and its plates rub against the sides of the teeth. In this case the sprockets must be realigned in one plane.

What does the lead time depend on?

When ordering, please check the current stock level of this sprocket - the lead time depends on it and is clearly stated according to the quantity available in each warehouse. The stock level is shown above the product price and may vary depending on the warehouse.
