SPROCKETS

How to choose the right sprocket for your chain? A practical guide

The first step is to check the type of chain and choose the appropriate subcategory. For example, the 12B-1 designation means that it is a 3/4-inch pitch chain, and the -1 suffix indicates a single-row design. If the -2 designation were present, we would be dealing with a two-row chain, and -3 would indicate a three-row chain. For the 12B chain, all the sprockets found in the 3/4" 12B-1 subcategory fit.

How to determine the appropriate parameters of a sprocket?

After determining the type of chain, it is necessary to select the appropriate number of teeth of the sprocket. The next step is to check the required diameter of the mounting hole. In our store, we offer sprockets with a small bore diameter, so they can be easily turned to any size. As a result, we call them universal wheels for rolling.

Gear wheels with a finished hole

In response to growing demand from our customers, we try to keep the most popular gears with a finished hole in stock. However, if you do not find a wheel that meets your requirements, please contact us.
In your email, please specify:

1. Chain type (e.g. 10B-1),
2. Number of teeth,
3. The required diameter of the hole.
