A 6Z 8-213008 is a 30-tooth ladder chain sprocket with a 0.250 inch bore and 0.167 inch pitch, designed for use with inch-size 21 ladder chains. It has an outside diameter of 1.595 inches, a pitch diameter of 1.73 inches, and a hub with a face width of 0.065 inches. The sprocket is molded from black acetal with a brass, knurled metal insert. It is compatible with ladder chains made of galvanized steel, high-tensile steel, or stainless steel. The sprocket uses a set screw and spot drill for shaft mounting.
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.
