Pitch

|
|
| ||
| Pitch: | Metric roller chain and sprockets are categorized according to ISO Standard 606. The number correlates to pitch in 1/16" increments, expressed in millimeter units. AN ISO 12 sprocket therefore mates with a chain with 3/4", or 19.05mm, pitch. | ||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Subminiature (<3.75mm) | Sprocket pitch is classified as subminiature, or less than 3.75mm. | ||
| Miniature (3.75mm) | Sprocket pitch is classified as miniature, or 3.75mm. | ||
| ISO 04 (6.35mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 6.35mm. | ||
| ISO 06 (9.525mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 9.525mm. | ||
| ISO 08 (12.70mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 12.70mm. | ||
| ISO 10 (15.875mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 15.875mm. | ||
| ISO 12 (19.05mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 19.05mm. | ||
| ISO 16 (25.40mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 20.40mm. | ||
| ISO 20 (31.75mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 31.75mm. | ||
| ISO 24 (38.10mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 38.1mm. | ||
| ISO 28 (44.45mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 44.45mm. | ||
| ISO 32 (50.80mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 50.80mm. | ||
| ISO 36 (57.15mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 57.155mm. | ||
| ISO 40 (63.50mm) | Sprocket has a pitch of 63.5mm. | ||
| >63.50mm | Sprocket has a pitch greater than 63.50mm. | ||

| ||
| Number of Teeth: | Number of teeth for a specified pitch will determine sprocket size and drive ratio. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Bore Diameter: | Diameter of center bore for shaft mounting. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Hub Diameter (if applicable): | Outside diameter of desired hub. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Outside Diameter: | This is the diameter of the sprocket including teeth. It is primarily of concern if clearance is an issue. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Length Through Bore: | The total width of the sprocket, including hub(s). | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Weight: | The unit weight of the sprocket. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
Material

|
|
| ||
| Material: | Material selection is dependent on factors such as required power transmission and speed, environmental factors such as temperature and exposure to corrosive elements, and other factors such as noise generation. Consult with a sprocket manufacturer on a specific application to optimize material selection. | ||
| Your choices are... | |||
| All Plastic | Teeth, web, and hub are all plastic; used where component weight is a design consideration, for quiet running, and in light-to medium duty applications. | ||
| Plastic Teeth / Metal Insert | Plastic teeth allow for lightness and corrosion resistance. Metal is used for the hub or hub insert to allow closer tolerance fit onto shafts, press-on applications, etc. | ||
| Steel - Standard | A commercial iron that contains carbon in any amount up to about 1.7 percent as an essential alloying constituent. It is malleable when under suitable conditions, and is distinguished from cast iron by its malleability and lower carbon content. | ||
| Steel - Hardened | Steel may be hardened in a number of ways, including a variety of quenching techniques in oil and water, being passed through induction chambers, etc. Quickly cooling steel during processing freezes, traps and packs the carbon atoms inside the shrunken iron crystals, thereby producing a very hard and brittle metal. Although very hard, it is less resistant to shock or impact. | ||
| Steel - Stainless | Stainless steel refers to a broad family of steels that is chemical and corrosion resistant; is typically not hardened or hardenable to the same extent as standard carbon steels. | ||
| Other | Unlisted or specialized sprocket material. | ||

Idler Style

|
|
| ||
| Idler Sprocket | Idler sprockets rotate freely while taking up slack and providing tension to a chain drive system. They are used as tensioners and occasionally to provide chain clearance around a machine component. | ||
| Search Logic: | "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice. | ||
| Idler Style: | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Bronze Bushing | Bronze bushings are typically impregnated with oil. | ||
| Ball Bearing | Center ball bearing allows idler free rotation. | ||

| Type B (Hub One Side) | Hub projects from only one side of the sprocket. | ||
| Type C (Hub Both Sides) | Hub projects from both sides of the sprocket. | ||
| Type D (Detachable Bolt-on Hub) | Detachable bolt-on hub; suitable for removing for frequent sprocket changes, maintenance, etc. | ||

| Specialty Hubs | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Tapered Bushing | Tapered bushings are tightened down onto the shaft like a collet to minimize shaft marring. | ||
| Shear Pin Hub | Shear pin provides protection against drive system jamming or overload. Torque is carried by shear pin, which is necked to shear when safe load is exceeded. | ||
| Other | Select for hub style not listed. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||
