Sprocket 24B-1 z=22 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 24B-1 z=22, with hub

Simplex sprocket 24B-1 with hub, 22 teeth - designed for chain with a pitch of 1 1/2" (38.1 mm). The material is C45E carbon steel (EN 10083-1), and the teeth remain unhardened (without induction hardening) - in accordance with DIN 8187 / ISO 606; this version is easier to machine over the entire depth of the sprocket.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

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.

How does the choice of the number of teeth affect vibration levels and drive operation?

A smaller number of teeth means fewer meshing points per revolution and larger fluctuations in the instantaneous chain speed (the so-called polygon effect), which results in higher vibration levels. Increasing the number of teeth of the sprocket (at the same pitch) smooths the operation of the drive, although it increases its overall dimensions.

In what cases are multi-strand sprockets used?

They are used to drive multi-strand chains in heavily loaded machines where there is no room for a wider sprocket with a larger pitch. Several strands distribute the load evenly, preventing premature chain breakage.

How do you cut a keyway in the hub of a sprocket?

We cut keyways precisely on slotting machines according to DIN 6885. If you do it yourself, maintain axial alignment and the correct width and depth of the keyway so that the key sits securely and is not sheared off.

Where is this product used?

24B-1 sprockets operate in drives of construction machinery, goods lifts, aggregate conveyors and woodworking machines - wherever tooth durability under load matters.
