Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How do I check the radial and axial runout of a sprocket after mounting it on the shaft?

A dial indicator on a magnetic stand is used for the measurement. Place the tip against the circumference of the sprocket or its side face, rotate the shaft and check the deviations. Excessive runout indicates faulty installation or a damaged shaft.

How can you tell whether a sprocket is still fit for further service or already due for replacement?

It is worth checking the tooth profile for visible chipping or the characteristic "hooked" shape, and also measuring the pitch circle diameter and comparing it with the catalogue dimension of a new sprocket. If the difference is visually noticeable or the chain starts to "jump", the sprocket is due for replacement.

What is the set screw hole in the hub for?

The threaded hole in the hub is used to screw in a headless screw (a so-called grub screw). It secures the sprocket against axial displacement along the shaft during machine vibration.

Does the machine's operating temperature matter when choosing the sprocket material?

Yes - at very low or very high temperatures the mechanical properties of steel or cast iron change, and lubricants may change viscosity or thicken. Under unusual thermal conditions (cold stores, furnaces, dryers), it is advisable to consult the supplier before selecting a specific material variant.

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.
