Product description
This Tsubaki roller chain sprocket includes a 3/4-inch pitch, fits size 60 chains, and is single strand with one group of teeth around its circumference for use with single strand chains. It is a sort B sprocket with a hub projection encircling the bore on one side, and both hub and bore possess Quick-Disconnect (QD) fittings for inserting and locking into place different QD bushings based on the diameter of the shaft. One’s teeth of the sprocket help prevent slipping and binding in order to avoid power loss in assemblies. It meets International Company for Standardization (ISO) 9001 for quality assurance. This one strand roller chain sprocket is ideal for use in a wide range of applications involving light to moderate loads and ongoing, high-cycle operations, including vehicle transmission systems, structure and agricultural apparatus, conveyors, and factory production and assembly lines, among others.
A roller chain sprocket is a thin wheel with deep, uniformly spaced the teeth ringing its circumference. The distance from the peak of 1 tooth to another is named the pitch, and is often measured in 1/8-in . increments. The sprocket transfers power and movement by a roller chain that is threaded over one’s teeth of the sprocket. The alignment of the chain with the sprocket’s pitch stops the chain from slipping to ensure that no power is lost. In the center of the sprocket may be the bore (hole) for sliding the sprocket onto a shaft, and a bushing or bearing is certainly often fitted to the sprocket’s hub to custom-match the sprocket onto a shaft to hold it firmly set up. A hub can be a protruding, raised lip encircling the bore of the sprocket. Sprockets with hubs on both sides are Type C, sprockets with hubs on one part are Type B, and sprockets without hubs are Type A sprockets. For applications needing sprockets to end up being swapped onto shafts of different diameters, a sprocket with a bore large enough to match all shafts may be used, with the gap between the bore and shaft closed with a bushing or bearing. Roller chain sprockets are found in a broad selection of applications where the drive power of an engine needs to be transferred into motion, such as in motor vehicles, conveyors, escalators, agricultural, forestry and mining equipment, aeronautics, robotics and space exploration, among others.
