The A 6AS9M4024016S is a single-arm, spring-loaded chain tensioner with a 16-tooth steel sprocket and ball bearing, designed for 1/2" x 5/16" pitch roller chains. The arm is made of high-tensile die-cast aluminum alloy, and the sprocket is heat-treated steel. It has a maximum operating temperature of 100°C (212°F). Dimensions include a chain pitch diameter of 70 mm (2.76 in), an overall length L of 133.5 mm (5.26 in), and an M10 mounting thread. The tensioner supports a minimum chain load of 50 N (11 lbf) and a maximum of 180 N (40 lbf). Anti-rotation holes and a 60° orientation angle are provided for mounting stability.
Chain and sprocket drives are often used where positive synchronization between shafts and transmission of substantial torque are required. They are one of the more frequently used methods of power transmission, providing greater power than belts. Highly efficient, a single chain can drive several shafts and is used for both long and short distances. Adverse conditions, such as temperature and environment, do not affect their running. Other advantages include compact size and low maintenance costs. Chain drives are found in a wide range of power transmission applications, including bicycles, agricultural machinery, machine tools, conveyors, business machines, electronic or electro-mechanical devices, etc.
