Product description
This Tsubaki roller chain sprocket has a 3/4-inch pitch, fits size 60 chains, and is single strand with one set of teeth around its circumference for use with single strand chains. It is a sort B sprocket with a hub projection encircling the bore using one side, and both hub and bore have Quick-Disconnect (QD) fittings for inserting and locking into place different QD bushings depending on the diameter of the shaft. One’s teeth of the sprocket assist in preventing slipping and binding in order to avoid power loss in assemblies. It fulfills International Company for Standardization (ISO) 9001 for quality assurance. This single strand roller chain sprocket can be ideal for use in a broad range of applications regarding light to moderate loads and ongoing, high-cycle operations, including vehicle transmission systems, construction and agricultural equipment, conveyors, and factory manufacturing and assembly lines, amongst others.

A roller chain sprocket is a thin wheel with deep, uniformly spaced the teeth ringing its circumference. The length from the peak of one tooth to another is named the pitch, and is commonly measured in 1/8-inch increments. The sprocket transfers power and motion by a roller chain that’s threaded over the 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 usually lost. In the heart of the sprocket may be the bore (hole) for sliding the sprocket onto a shaft, and a bushing or bearing is usually often suited to the sprocket’s hub to custom-fit the sprocket onto a shaft to hold it firmly in place. A hub is certainly a protruding, raised lip encircling the bore of the sprocket. Sprockets with hubs on both sides are Type C, sprockets with hubs using one part are Type B, and sprockets with no hubs are Type A sprockets. For applications needing sprockets to become swapped onto shafts of different diameters, a sprocket with a bore large enough to match all shafts can be used, with the gap between your bore and shaft closed with a bushing or bearing. Roller chain sprockets are found in a broad range of applications where in fact the drive power of an engine needs to be transferred into motion, such as in motor vehicles, conveyors, escalators, agricultural, forestry and mining gear, aeronautics, robotics and space exploration, amongst others.

U.S. Tsubaki Power Transmission manufactures a number of chains, sprockets, and additional power transmission parts that meet International Firm for Standardization (ISO) criteria for quality assurance. The company, founded in 1917, can be headquartered in Wheeling, IL.
