Sprocket 20B-3 z=34 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 20B-3 z=34, with hub

Sprocket 20B-3, triplex (three-strand), with 34 teeth and a hub - pitch 1 1/4" (31.75 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

How does a sprocket differ from a module spur gear?

A sprocket works with a roller chain and has a tooth profile matched to the chain rollers (standard DIN 8187/ISO 606), whereas a module spur gear meshes directly with another gear or a gear rack, has an involute tooth profile and parameters described by the module (standard DIN 780/ISO 54). These are two different power transmission systems, not interchangeable with each other.

When ordering several sprockets for one drive, do they have identical production parameters?

Sprockets of the same catalogue item are produced according to the same documentation and tolerances, so their parameters (pitch, number of teeth, dimensions) match each other regardless of when they were ordered. Any slight differences in the shade of the steel between production batches have no effect on how the sprocket works with the chain.

Can a new chain be fitted on an old, worn sprocket?

Never do this. An old, deformed sprocket has altered tooth geometry and will force drastic mechanical stretching on the new chain. The rule is "new chain - new sprocket" - only then will the drive achieve maximum service life.

How do I select a sprocket for a roller chain?

The selected sprocket must match the chain parameters exactly. Pay attention to three things: the standard (European B series), the pitch and the number of strands. The sprocket must have a tooth profile compliant with DIN 8187 so that the chain enters the tooth root smoothly without jamming.

Where is this product used?

20B-3 sprockets are used in industrial drive transmissions: conveyors, feeders, packaging machines and production lines where precise, repeatable torque transmission matters.

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.
