Product Description

Sprocket 16B-1 z=9, with hub

Sprocket 16B-1 (pitch 1" - 25.4 mm), simplex, 9 teeth, with hub. Compliance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606 guarantees full interchangeability with a chain of the same pitch; the sprocket is made of C45E steel (EN 10083-1) in a non-hardened version - the standard choice for applications with moderate and medium load.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How can a sprocket and chain be protected against corrosion during storage?

After cleaning off any dirt, it is advisable to apply a layer of preservative grease or anti-corrosion oil and store the sprocket in a dry place not exposed to condensation. In the steel version (without coating), even a short damp break in the workshop can cause a rusty film on the tooth surfaces.

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 metal against rust deposits during the break while it is stored in the hall.

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.

Where is this product used?

16B-1 sprockets operate in drives of construction machinery, goods lifts, aggregate conveyors and woodworking machines - wherever tooth durability under load matters.
