Sprockets and Applications

• Sprockets are designed for use with the specified plastic chains, with dimensions and radii tailored to chain pitch and width.
• Working loads and tensile forces are provided primarily for carbon steel sprockets; stainless steel variants require consultation with engineering.
• Standard sprocket diameters include 254 mm (10.00 inch), 305 mm (12.00 inch), and 457 mm (18.00 inch).

Key Parameters and Recommendations

• Working loads are specified at 21°C and vary by chain series and model.
• Reverse radius values indicate the minimum bending radius for side flexing chains, critical for installation and operation.
• Weight per meter is provided for material handling and design considerations.
• Consult engineering for stainless steel tensile force specifications.
