Sprocket 32B-1 z=19 with hub

Product Description

Sprocket 32B-1 z=19, with hub

The sprocket 32B-1 shown is a simplex sprocket with 19 teeth, made with a hub, for chain with a pitch of 2" / 50.8 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

Does a sprocket with hub have a fixed mounting side, or can it be reversed?

The sprocket is usually symmetrical with respect to the plane of the rim, so the rim itself cannot be "reversed incorrectly" - but the hub is usually on only one side of the sprocket, which determines which way the sprocket must be mounted relative to other components on the shaft (e.g. bearings, other sprockets).

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 should a chain drive be lubricated to extend its service life?

The lubricant should get between the rollers and plates of the chain, not just onto its outer surface - it is best applied to the lower (slack) part of the chain, just before it runs onto the sprocket. In a dusty environment, a thick grease works better, while at high speeds a lower-viscosity oil that penetrates the joints more easily is preferable.

How do you select the number of teeth on the driving and driven sprockets to obtain the required ratio?

The ratio is calculated as the quotient of the number of teeth on the driven sprocket and the number of teeth on the driving sprocket. For example, to halve the rotational speed, the driven sprocket should have twice as many teeth as the driving sprocket - both sprockets must have the same pitch and number of strands.

Where is this product used?

Typical applications of the 32B-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.
