Ladder chain sprockets with 0.286 pitch and brass inserts are designed for use with inch-size ladder chains. The sprockets feature acetal teeth with knurled brass inserts and are available with set screw bores in .1875, .250, and .3125 inch sizes. Outside diameters and pitch diameters are specified for 13, 18, and 36 tooth variants, with hub lengths of .625 inch for 18 and 36 tooth models. All sprockets have a .100 inch face width and are intended for applications requiring positive drive with corrosion-resistant materials.
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.
