Sprocket 08B-1 z=31 with hub, hardened

Product Description

Sprocket 08B-1 z=31, hardened hub

Sprocket 08B-1, simplex, with 31 teeth and a hardened hub - pitch 1/2" (12.7 mm). Compliance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606 guarantees full interchangeability with chain of the same pitch; C45E steel (EN 10083-1) and induction hardening of the teeth (45-55 HRC) provide high wear resistance while keeping the hub machinable.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How does induction hardening of the teeth affect abrasion resistance?

Induction hardening hardens only the surface layer of the tooth, where the chain rollers bear. The tooth is resistant to wear, while the sprocket core and hub remain elastic enough to safely absorb impacts and be suitable for boring.

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

In heavy dust, with powerful jolts (e.g. in presses) and where a breakdown in the middle of the season cannot be afforded, sprockets made of higher-strength quenched and tempered steel are often a good solution - it is worth consulting the supplier about unusual operating conditions.

What material is this sprocket made of?

As standard, it is carbon steel C45E (EN 10083-1) - a good material for typical industrial applications, providing a good balance between strength and machinability of the hub.

When is it worth using a clamping bush (Taper Bush) for a sprocket?

Wherever fast assembly matters. A clamping bush eliminates the need for laborious boring of the hub and cutting of a keyway - you insert the sprocket, tighten the screws and the machine is back in operation within minutes.

Where is this product used?

Applications include drives in the food industry, packaging machines, sorting lines and agricultural harvesting machines, where the sprocket operates seasonally but under full load.
