Sprocket 10B-1 z=70 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 10B-1 z=70, with hub

Sprocket 10B-1 (pitch 5/8" - 15.88 mm), simplex, 70 teeth, with hub. 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.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How do sprockets for roller chains differ from sprockets for toothed chains (silent chain)?

A sprocket for roller chain has a rounded tooth root matched to the chain roller (profile according to DIN 8187), whereas a sprocket for toothed chain (silent chain) has a flat, trapezoidal tooth profile that engages the chain plates instead of rollers. These two systems are not interchangeable.

Can a sprocket with a technological bore be installed without additional machining?

No - the technological bore is deliberately too small to fit a typical shaft. It must be bored on a lathe to the required diameter and, if necessary, a keyway cut according to the requirements of the specific machine.

Does the difference in hardness between sprocket and chain affect their rate of wear?

Yes - chain and sprocket manufacturers select hardness so that they wear as evenly as possible, rather than one element "cutting down" the other. An excessively hard sprocket working with a soft, non-certified chain (or vice versa) leads to faster wear of the weaker element.

What does the pitch of a sprocket mean and how can it be checked?

The pitch of a sprocket corresponds to the chain pitch - it is the theoretical distance between the centres of adjacent teeth on the pitch circle. The easiest way to check it is to place a section of matching chain on the sprocket - it should sit perfectly, without tension.

Where is this product used?

10B-1 sprockets operate in drives of construction machinery, goods lifts, aggregate conveyors and woodworking machines - wherever tooth durability under load matters.
