Sprocket 10B-1 z=16 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 10B-1 z=16, with hub

The sprocket 10B-1 shown is a simplex sprocket with 16 teeth, made with a hub, for chain with a pitch of 5/8" / 15.88 mm. As a European manufacturer, Ozdowski supplies the sprocket in C45E steel (EN 10083-1), in accordance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606 - a version without tooth hardening, cheaper than the hardened variant and sufficient for many typical industrial applications.

Frequently asked questions

How do you calculate the pitch circle diameter of a sprocket?

The pitch circle diameter (Dp) is, in simplified terms, the line along which the chain rollers roll. It is calculated using the formula: pitch divided by sine (180° / number of teeth).

How does one duplex sprocket differ from two independent simplex sprockets on a common shaft?

A duplex sprocket is a single, monolithic toothed rim serving a duplex chain, in which both strands are mechanically integrated in one component. Two independent simplex sprockets on a common shaft serve two completely separate simplex chains - these solutions are not interchangeable without changing the chain type.

How can you check whether the chain in an existing drive is already excessively elongated (stretched)?

Stretch out a section of a dozen or so chain links and compare its length with the catalogue dimension - an elongation of more than approx. 2-3% means the chain is due for replacement. A stretched chain no longer seats properly on the sprocket teeth, which accelerates the wear of both components, so it is better to replace it before it damages the sprocket as well.
