Metric Sprockets

Metric Sprockets Overview
TL Taper Bushed Metric Sprockets
TL Sprockets are stocked in a wide selection of sizes which includes ISO 06B, 08B, 10B, 12B, 16B and 20B chain sizes (3/8 to 1-1/4” pitch) for single, double and triple chain. These attach with regular TL tapered bushings from 1008 thru 5050 (i.e., thru a 5” or 125mm shaft diameter). TL Sprockets are available in an array of diameters to accommodate various app speeds. The more popular sizes are stocked with hardened tooth. The C45 materials, standard steel sprockets, permits induction hardening of tooth. So all can be high temperature treated Hardened The teeth on request. The TL Taper Bushed Sprocket offers a true concentric fit to the shaft. As the TL bushing screws are tightened, the bushing compresses around the shaft securely. Standard hex wrenches are the only tool necessary for set up or removal. Once the bushing mounting screws are loosened and eliminated, the screw is certainly re-used and threaded into the bushing removal hole. Tightening the removal screw will gently loosen the sprocket. PTI stocks both metric and inch bore TL bushings, a typical global design, which is why the TL sprocket is so versatile. Simple installation, concentric shaft match, ideal for higher chain sprocket speeds and large loads plus a cost-effective price, make this the favorite choice for new styles and replacement requirements. TL sprockets are usually less expensive than custom or completed bored sprockets. Hub Type Metric Sprockets Hub Type Metric Sprockets are available with a minimum ordinary bore (pilot bore) plus some share completed bore sizes. Any shaft size is possible with our custom made bore and keyway ability. Sprockets with hubs are typically fitted to the shaft as a clearance suit. They are held in place with two set screws and a keyway. Clearance fits are well-known for light loads and slow speeds. A press fit (or shrink suit to the shaft) is normally favored for higher speeds or heavier loads as they suit to the shaft more securely than a clearance match sprocket. With respect to the clearance of the shaft match, sprockets may work somewhat on the shaft leading to feasible fretting or shaft wear. All regular hub sprockets can be found with hardened the teeth from stock or on request. Press fits usually need the sprocket to end up being heated for installation to increase the bore. As a heated sprocket cools, it shrinks, conforming to the shaft with a tight grip. A established screw secures the main element. The TL Taper Bushed Sprocket will function like the press match sprocket and generally easier to install. Plate Type Metric Sprockets Plate Sprockets for solitary, dual or triple strand chain are a cost-effective choice allowing for direct mounting to the clients’ hub or shaft. They are most regularly regarded as for sprockets above 40 teeth and so are available in a wide variety of diameters. Plate type sprockets can be welded or bolted directly to the users’ hub keeping gear compact and light weight. They are available in single, double and triple tooth configurations aswell. Weld on Hubs A Weld-On-Hub is frequently used to simplify installation, especially huge diameter sprockets. PTI stocks regular TL Weld-OnHub sizes. The Weld-On-Hub uses the typical TL bushings as do many of the other standard drive components. TL Bushings are stocked in both metric and in . bores. TL Bushings for Weld-On-Hubs or TL Bushed Sprockets TL Taper Bushings for Weld-OnHubs and sprockets are stocked from 1008 thru 5050 sizes covering 5” or 125mm shaft sizes. TL Bushings are well suited for replacements and a modern remedy for upgrading clearance fit and press fit sprockets. TL Bushings are found in a wide variety of other European and American standard drive products. STAINLESS Metric Sprockets Stainless Steel (AISI 304L) Metric Sprockets provide corrosion resistance and allow wash-down capability. These hub type sprockets could be provided with a completed bore and keyway. Stainless Sprockets can’t be hardened. PTI stocks sizes from ISO 06B thru 16B (3/8” -1” pitch) and from 12 to 25 & 30 teeth. Larger sizes on request. TL Bushed edition also on request. Metric Idler and Double-Solitary Sprockets Metric Idler Sprockets are plate sprockets with a ball bearing for mounting. These sprockets generally provide tension for the chain drive and can be used within a pressure arm assembly or separately mounted to position the drive. Share sizes are for sale to ISO 05B thru 20B metric chain sizes. Double-Single Sprockets, well-known on conveyors, allow 2 single chains about the same sprocket to control pairs of rolls or drive models that must index. Customized Metric or ANSI Sprockets Customized sprockets including huge diameter steel or cast iron units for solitary, duplex or triple strand chain could be made to order. PTI typically continues some stock inside our European warehouse, therefore delivery could possibly be rather quick. Additional customized sprockets sizes for Metric conveyor chain or ANSI chain are also feasible. Drawings are favored to insure requirements are obvious. All are possible with custom finished bore.
