Single Pitch Roller Chain Sprockets

These finished bore sprockets are shaft ready and come complete with keyways and setscrews. The keyways are on center line of the tooth. Bored to size sprockets with 1/2 in bores and smaller are stocked with (2) setscrews only.

A plates are flat sprockets with no hub extension on either side. They can be altered for your application with bolt holes, custom bores, hardened teeth or special hubs welded to them.

QD (quick detachable)is a sprocket where a tapered bushing is bolted into the taper bore that is machined in the sprocket. When installed this bushing is compressed onto the shaft providing a tight grip.

Hub type metric sprockets are available with a minimum plain bore (pilot bore) and some stock finished bore sizes. Any shaft size is possible with our custom bore and keyway capability. Sprockets with hubs are typically fitted to the shaft as a clearance fit. They are held in place with two set screws and a keyway. Clearance fits are popular for light loads and slow speeds. A press fit (or shrink fit to the shaft) is usually preferred for higher speeds or heavier loads as they fit to the shaft more securely than a clearance fit sprocket. Depending on the clearance of the shaft fit, sprockets may work slightly on the shaft causing possible fretting or shaft wear. All sprockets are available with hardened teeth from stock or on request. Press fits usually require the sprocket to be heated for installation to expand the bore. As a heated sprocket cools, it shrinks, conforming to the shaft with a tight grip. A set screw can be used to secure the key. The TL taper bushed sprocket will function like the press fit sprocket and is generally easier to install.
