Sprocket 08B-1 (1/2") z=13 with hub, bore 12 mm with keyway, C45 steel

Product Description

Sprocket 08B-1 (1/2") z=13 with hub, bore 12 mm with keyway, C45 steel is designed for 08B-1 roller chain (European standard DIN 8187 / ISO 606), single-strand (simplex), with a pitch of 12.7 mm (1/2"). It has 13 teeth and is made of C45 steel.

The sprocket has a hub with a finished bore of 12 mm and a keyway, so it can be fitted straight onto a shaft of this diameter - without boring the hole or cutting a keyway. The hub diameter is 37 mm and the total width of the sprocket is 28 mm.

Technical data

Applications

It works in small chain transmissions, feeders and traverse mechanisms where a compact design matters.

Frequently asked questions

Which chain does the 08B-1 z=13 sprocket fit?

08B-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.

Which shaft does this sprocket fit?

The sprocket has a finished bore of 12 mm with a keyway, so it is mounted on a 12 mm shaft with a key. Before ordering, it is worth measuring the shaft carefully with a caliper in several places.

Does it fit ASA 40 chain?

No. ASA 40 chain (American standard) has the same pitch, but a different roller diameter (7.94 mm instead of 8.51 mm) and a different inner width (7.94 mm instead of 7.75 mm). The 08B sprocket is designed for European-standard chain, so the two systems should not be mixed.

How should sprockets be aligned during installation?

The driving and driven sprockets must lie in one plane. Alignment can be checked with a long steel straightedge placed against the sides of both wheels or with a laser alignment tool. Even a small misalignment wears the sides of the teeth and speeds up chain wear.

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.

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.
