Sprocket 20B-1 z=95 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 20B-1 z=95, with hub

Sprocket 20B-1 (pitch 1 1/4" - 31.75 mm), simplex, 95 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 does a sprocket with hardened teeth differ from the standard version (non-hardened)?

The hardened version has teeth induction-hardened to 45-55 HRC, which extends service life in drives operating continuously and under heavy load. The standard version (non-hardened) is cheaper and fully adequate for applications with moderate load or intermittent operation - our catalogue offers both variants for most pitches and numbers of teeth.

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 often should chain tension be checked on a machine in operation?

In machines operating continuously, it is advisable to check the tension every few weeks, and in a newly installed drive - as early as after the first hours of operation, when the chain "beds in". A correctly tensioned chain has a slight, visible sag on the slack side - too tight a chain accelerates bearing wear, while too loose a chain increases the risk of it jumping off the sprocket.

Can a sprocket be welded directly to the drive shaft?

Technically this is possible, but we strongly advise against such a solution. Welding overheats the material, damages nearby bearings, bends the shaft and prevents the worn sprocket from being easily replaced later. Always use mounting with a key or a clamping bush.

Where is this product used?

Typical applications of the 20B-1 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.
