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, dual and triple chain. These attach with regular TL tapered bushings from 1008 thru 5050 (we.e., thru a 5” or 125mm shaft diameter). TL Sprockets are available in an array of diameters to accommodate various application speeds. The popular sizes are stocked with hardened the teeth. The C45 materials, standard steel sprockets, allows for induction hardening of teeth. So all can be warmth treated Hardened Teeth on request. The TL Taper Bushed Sprocket provides a accurate concentric suit to the shaft. As the TL bushing screws are tightened, the bushing compresses around the shaft securely. Standard hex wrenches will be the only tool necessary for installation or removal. After the bushing installation screws are loosened and removed, the screw is certainly re-used and threaded into the bushing removal hole. Tightening the removal screw will carefully loosen the sprocket. PTI stocks both metric and ” bore TL bushings, a standard global design, which explains why the TL sprocket is so versatile. Ease of installation, concentric shaft match, suitable for higher speeds and large loads plus an economical price, make this the favorite choice for new designs and replacement requirements. TL sprockets are generally less expensive than custom or completed bored sprockets. Hub Type Metric Sprockets Hub Type Metric Sprockets are available with a minimum basic bore (pilot bore) and some stock completed bore sizes. Any shaft size can be done with our custom bore and keyway ability. Sprockets with hubs are usually suited to the shaft as a clearance suit. They are held in place with two arranged screws and a keyway. Clearance fits are popular for light loads and sluggish speeds. A press match (or shrink suit to the shaft) is usually preferred for higher speeds or heavier loads because they fit to the shaft more securely than a clearance match sprocket. Based on the clearance of the shaft match, sprockets may work slightly on the shaft leading to possible fretting or shaft use. All regular hub sprockets are available with hardened tooth from share or on request. Press fits usually require the sprocket to end up being heated for set up to expand the bore. As a heated sprocket cools, it shrinks, conforming to the shaft with a good grip. A set screw secures the key. The TL Taper Bushed Sprocket will function just like the press suit sprocket and generally simpler to install. Plate Type Metric Sprockets Plate Sprockets for solitary, dual or triple strand chain are an economical choice allowing for immediate mounting to the customers’ hub or shaft. They are most regularly considered for sprockets above 40 teeth and so are available in a wide variety of diameters. Plate type sprockets could be welded or bolted directly to the users’ hub keeping apparatus compact and light-weight. They can be purchased in single, dual and triple tooth configurations aswell. Weld on Hubs A Weld-On-Hub is often used to simplify mounting, especially huge diameter sprockets. PTI stocks regular TL Weld-OnHub sizes. The Weld-On-Hub uses the typical TL bushings as perform many of the other standard drive elements. TL Bushings are stocked in both metric and ” 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 perfect for replacements and a modern solution for upgrading clearance fit and press fit sprockets. TL Bushings are found in a multitude of additional European and American regular drive products. STAINLESS Metric Sprockets Stainless Steel (AISI 304L) Metric Sprockets provide corrosion resistance and allow wash-down ability. These hub type sprockets could be provided with a finished 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 tooth. Larger sizes on ask for. TL Bushed edition also on ask for. Metric Idler and Double-Single Sprockets Metric Idler Sprockets are plate sprockets with a ball bearing for installation. These sprockets generally offer pressure for the chain drive and can be utilized within a pressure arm assembly or individually mounted to put 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 on a single sprocket to control pairs of rolls or drive systems that must index. Custom Metric or ANSI Sprockets Custom sprockets including huge diameter steel or cast iron products for single, duplex or triple strand chain could be made to purchase. PTI typically will keep some stock inside our European warehouse, so delivery could possibly be rather quick. Various other custom sprockets sizes for Metric conveyor chain or ANSI chain are also feasible. Drawings are preferred to insure requirements are clear. All are possible with custom finished bore.
