Product Description

Sprocket 08B-2 z=22, hardened hub

Sprocket 08B-2 with hardened hub, 22 teeth, duplex - a product matched to a chain with a pitch of 12.7 mm (1/2"). Made in accordance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606, from C45E steel (EN 10083-1), with teeth induction hardened to 45-55 HRC - as a Polish manufacturer, Ozdowski ensures that the hub remains soft and suitable for turning.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

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).

What should be used to preserve sprockets before a longer break in operation?

After cleaning with a brush and a technical cleaner, apply preservative grease or a thick, moisture-displacing spray oil to the entire surface of the sprocket. This will protect the carbon steel against a rusty film during a break in the workshop.

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.

Is a duplex sprocket the same as a tandem sprocket (for two single chains)?

No, even though they look very similar. A tandem sprocket is also a single, monolithic sprocket, but with a different (wider) spacing of the toothed rims - designed specifically for two independent simplex chains running in parallel. This duplex sprocket has a rim spacing matched to a single duplex chain, in which both strands are integrated with each other. Using a duplex sprocket for two single chains is a mistake - the spacing is too narrow and the chains will rub against each other, which leads to accelerated wear and, in extreme cases, to serious drive failure.

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.
