Sprocket 08B-1 z=50 with hub, hardened

Product Description

Sprocket 08B-1 z=50, hardened hub

Simplex sprocket 08B-1 with hardened hub, 50 teeth - designed for chain with a pitch of 1/2" (12.7 mm). Sprocket compliant with DIN 8187 / ISO 606, milled from C45E steel (EN 10083-1); the teeth are induction hardened (45-55 HRC), while the core and hub remain soft, allowing the bore to be safely machined to the shaft size.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

What causes premature wear of the side faces of the teeth?

This is most often the result of misalignment of the sprockets on the shafts (so-called lateral runout of the drive). The chain does not run straight, and its inner plates catch on the sides of the teeth, wearing them down to bare metal. The system must be realigned immediately.

What is the relationship between the number of teeth of a sprocket and the rotational speed of the drive?

This is the basic principle of the transmission ratio. If there is a small sprocket on the motor (drive) and a large one on the machine, the machine will turn more slowly but gain proportionally greater torque (force).

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.

Does Ozdowski have its own warehouse and fast shipping of parts?

Yes - we know that every minute counts during a production line breakdown, which is why we keep large stocks of sprockets available immediately, allowing lightning-fast shipping and a quick solution to the drive problem.

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.
