Hub sprockets

General information

 

In addition to roller chains, sprockets are indispensable accessories for chain drives. A chain drive shall consist of at least one chain and at least two sprockets. Sprockets are always selected for the roller chain to be used. The division of the Sprocket must be perfectly consistent with the division of the roller chain. The width of the sprocket must fit within the minimum internal width of the roller chain. The roller diameter of the roller rampart must correspond to the curves formed in the grooves of the sprocket.

 

 

For simplicity, always use a sprocket marked with the same marking as your roller chain. Due to the design of the roller chain, chains marked 083 and 084 require a completely identical sprocket, this is available in group 083.  Hub sprockets contain a wider part called a hub on ONE side of their axle (shape B). By machining the hub, we can create different forms of connection and attachment. The most commonly designed hub section has a hole and a latch track, but screw fastening, ribbed shaft nests, or even seeger ring fastenings are also common. The hub is delivered unmachined (with a base hole), machining is the responsibility of the customer.

 

If you do not want to engage in machining, use a tapered clamping sprocket instead of a hub sprocket. If the installation warrants it, we can use a sprocket instead of a hub sprocket.
