Sprocket 12B-3 z=32 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 12B-3 z=32, with hub

The sprocket 12B-3 shown is a triplex (three-strand) sprocket with 32 teeth, made with a hub, for chain with a pitch of 3/4" / 19.05 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.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

If I order today, when will I receive the product?

Information on the lead time is given next to the product's stock level, above the price. If the sprocket is available in the main warehouse, we ship it no later than the next working day.

How does material quality prevent the teeth from "shearing" during sudden machine jerks?

Soft, uncertified sheet metal deforms under a sudden jerk - the teeth bend over. Steel from a certified melt, correctly heat-treated, has a high yield strength and withstands a torque surge without permanent deformation.

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 should a chain drive be lubricated to extend its service life?

The lubricant should get between the rollers and plates of the chain, not just onto its outer surface - it is best applied to the lower (slack) part of the chain, just before it runs onto the sprocket. In a dusty environment, a thick grease works better, while at high speeds a lower-viscosity oil that penetrates the joints more easily is preferable.

Where is this product used?

Typical applications of the 12B-3 sprocket: drives for pumps, mixers and industrial fans, as well as control systems for industrial gates and roller shutters, where resistance to continuous operation is required.

When placing your order, please check the current stock level of this gear - the lead time depends on it and is clearly stated according to the quantity available in the given warehouse.
