Sprocket 20B-1 z=9 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 20B-1 z=9, with hub

Sprocket 20B-1, simplex, with 9 teeth and a hub - pitch 1 1/4" (31.75 mm). 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 important is the concentricity of the hub bore relative to the toothed rim?

If the hub bore is not machined concentrically with the toothed rim, the sprocket will "run out" during operation - the teeth will engage the chain at a varying angle, which accelerates their wear and generates additional vibration. That is why boring out the pilot bore must be done on a lathe, clamping the sprocket by the hub or rim, and not "by eye".

What does uneven, one-sided wear of the sprocket teeth indicate?

This usually indicates misalignment between the driving and driven sprockets or that the chain is skewed relative to the sprocket. It is worth checking the alignment of both sprockets and the condition of the shaft bearings - over time, one-sided wear causes the chain to jump off the tooth.

How should large-diameter sprockets be transported and stored to prevent deformation?

Large sprockets are best stored and transported lying flat on a level, stable surface, rather than resting on the toothed rim alone, which is more susceptible to local deformation. When lifting, it is advisable to use slings passed through the hub bore rather than hooking them onto individual teeth.

Will a sprocket from another manufacturer work properly with the chain I already have?

If the sprocket is made to the same standard (DIN 8187/ISO 606) and has the same pitch and number of strands, it should work properly with a chain of another brand - that is the purpose of standardisation in this industry. However, differences between manufacturers may concern, for example, hub dimensions or material, so these parameters are worth checking separately.

Where is this product used?

This type of sprocket is used in drives of agricultural and industrial machinery, including screw and bucket conveyors, feed conveyors, packaging machines and internal transport systems.
