Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer sprockets made to custom dimensions, outside the catalogue?

Yes, in addition to catalogue items we also manufacture sprockets to individual drawings or customer requirements - please contact the sales department and provide the required parameters (pitch, number of teeth, hub dimensions, material).

How do you select a sprocket when the machine lacks space for a larger pitch?

In such a situation, a better solution than increasing the pitch is often to use a multi-strand chain and sprocket of the same (smaller) pitch - several strands together carry a greater load without increasing the sprocket diameter.

How can you recognise a sprocket not made in accordance with the DIN 8187 profile?

Most often it is visible from the incorrect seating of the chain on the teeth - the chain "sits" on the tooth tips or too deep in the tooth roots, despite the correct pitch. In that case, it is worth placing a section of a known reference chain of this pitch on the sprocket and checking whether it engages each tooth evenly and smoothly.

What forces act on the key in a sprocket and how can it be prevented from shearing?

The key transmits the entire shearing torque between the shaft and the sprocket. Make sure it is made of suitable quenched and tempered steel, has an accurate fit in the keyway and that the machine is not subjected to extreme jerks without an overload clutch.

Where is this product used?

20B-1 sprockets operate in drives of construction machinery, goods lifts, aggregate conveyors and woodworking machines - wherever tooth durability under load matters.
