Product Description
SPROCKET 1/2” X 5/16” 08B SERIES SPROCKETS
BASIC INFO.
INSTALLATION AND USING
The chain spocket, as a drive or deflection for chains, has pockets to hold the chain links with a D-profile cross section with flat side surfaces parallel to the centre plane of the chain links, and outer surfaces at right angles to the chain link centre plane. The chain links are pressed firmly against the outer surfaces and each of the side surfaces by the angled laying surfaces at the base of the pockets, and also the support surfaces of the wheel body together with the end sides of the webs formed by the leading and trailing walls of the pocket.
NOTICE
When fitting new chainwheels it is very important that a new chain is fitted at the same time, and vice versa. Using an old chain with new sprockets, or a new chain with old sprockets will cause rapid wear.
It is important if you are installing the chainwheels yourself to have the factory service manual specific to your model. Our chainwheels are made to be a direct replacement for your OEM chainwheels and as such, the installation should be performed according to your models service manual.
During use a chain will stretch (i.e. the pins will wear causing extension of the chain). Using a chain which has been stretched more than the above maximum allowance causes the chain to ride up the teeth of the sprocket. This causes damage to the tips of the chainwheels teeth, as the force transmitted by the chain is transmitted entirely through the top of the tooth, rather than the whole tooth. This results in severe wearing of the chainwheel.
FOR CHAIN STHangZhouRDS
Standards organizations (such as ANSI and ISO) maintain standards for design, dimensions, and interchangeability of transmission chains. For example, the following Table shows data from ANSI standard B29.1-2011 (Precision Power Transmission Roller Chains, Attachments, and Sprockets) developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). See the references[8][9][10] for additional information.

For mnemonic purposes, below is another presentation of key dimensions from the same standard, expressed in fractions of an inch (which was part of the thinking behind the choice of preferred numbers in the ANSI standard):
Notes:
1. The pitch is the distance between roller centers. The width is the distance between the link plates (i.e. slightly more than the roller width to allow for clearance).
2. The right-hand digit of the standard denotes 0 = normal chain, 1 = lightweight chain, 5 = rollerless bushing chain.
3. The left-hand digit denotes the number of eighths of an inch that make up the pitch.
4. An “H” following the standard number denotes heavyweight chain. A hyphenated number following the standard number denotes double-strand (2), triple-strand (3), and so on. Thus 60H-3 denotes number 60 heavyweight triple-strand chain.
A typical bicycle chain (for derailleur gears) uses narrow 1⁄2-inch-pitch chain. The width of the chain is variable, and does not affect the load capacity. The more sprockets at the rear wheel (historically 3-6, nowadays 7-12 sprockets), the narrower the chain. Chains are sold according to the number of speeds they are designed to work with, for example, “10 speed chain”. Hub gear or single speed bicycles use 1/2″ x 1/8″ chains, where 1/8″ refers to the maximum thickness of a sprocket that can be used with the chain.
Typically chains with parallel shaped links have an even number of links, with each narrow link followed by a broad one. Chains built up with a uniform type of link, narrow at 1 and broad at the other end, can be made with an odd number of links, which can be an advantage to adapt to a special chainwheel-distance; on the other side such a chain tends to be not so strong.
Roller chains made using ISO standard are sometimes called as isochains.

Benefits and Uses of Miter Gears
If you’ve ever looked into the differences between miter gears, you’re probably wondering how to choose between a Straight toothed and Hypoid one. Before you decide, however, make sure you know about backlash and what it means. Backlash is the difference between the addendum and dedendum, and it prevents jamming of the gears, protects the mating gear surfaces, and allows for thermal expansion during operation.
Spiral bevel gears
Spiral bevel gears are designed to increase efficiency and reduce cost. The spiral shape creates a profile in which the teeth are cut with a slight curve along their length, making them an excellent choice for heavy-duty applications. Spiral bevel gears are also hypoid gears, with no offsets. Their smaller size means that they are more compact than other types of right-angle gears, and they are much quieter than other types of gear.
Spiral bevel gears feature helical teeth arranged in a 90-degree angle. The design features a slight curve to the teeth, which reduces backlash while increasing flexibility. Because they have no offsets, they won’t slip during operation. Spiral bevel gears also have less backlash, making them an excellent choice for high-speed applications. They are also carefully spaced to distribute lubricant over a larger area. They are also very accurate and have a locknut design that prevents them from moving out of alignment.
In addition to the geometric design of bevel gears, CZPT can produce 3D models of spiral bevel gears. This software has gained widespread attention from many companies around the world. In fact, CZPT, a major manufacturer of 5-axis milling machines, recently machined a prototype using a spiral bevel gear model. These results prove that spiral bevel gears can be used in a variety of applications, ranging from precision machining to industrial automation.
Spiral bevel gears are also commonly known as hypoid gears. Hypoid gears differ from spiral bevel gears in that their pitch surface is not at the center of the meshing gear. The benefit of this gear design is that it can handle large loads while maintaining its unique features. They also produce less heat than their bevel counterparts, which can affect the efficiency of nearby components.
Straight toothed miter gears
Miter gears are bevel gears that have a pitch angle of 90 degrees. Their gear ratio is 1:1. Miter gears come in straight and spiral tooth varieties and are available in both commercial and high precision grades. They are a versatile tool for any mechanical application. Below are some benefits and uses of miter gears. A simple explanation of the basic principle of this gear type is given. Read on for more details.
When selecting a miter gear, it is important to choose the right material. Hard faced, high carbon steel is appropriate for applications requiring high load, while nylon and injection molding resins are suitable for lower loads. If a particular gear becomes damaged, it’s advisable to replace the entire set, as they are closely linked in shape. The same goes for spiral-cut miter gears. These geared products should be replaced together for proper operation.
Straight bevel gears are the easiest to manufacture. The earliest method was using an indexing head on a planer. Modern manufacturing methods, such as the Revacycle and Coniflex systems, made the process more efficient. CZPT utilizes these newer manufacturing methods and patented them. However, the traditional straight bevel is still the most common and widely used type. It is the simplest to manufacture and is the cheapest type.
SDP/Si is a popular supplier of high-precision gears. The company produces custom miter gears, as well as standard bevel gears. They also offer black oxide and ground bore and tooth surfaces. These gears can be used for many industrial and mechanical applications. They are available in moderate quantities from stock and in partial sizes upon request. There are also different sizes available for specialized applications.
Hypoid bevel gears
The advantages of using Hypoid bevel and helical gears are obvious. Their high speed, low noise, and long life make them ideal for use in motor vehicles. This type of gear is also becoming increasingly popular in the power transmission and motion control industries. Compared to standard bevel and helical gears, they have a higher capacity for torque and can handle high loads with less noise.
Geometrical dimensioning of bevel/hypoid bevel gears is essential to meet ANSI/AGMA/ISO standards. This article examines a few ways to dimension hypoid bevel and helical gears. First, it discusses the limitations of the common datum surface when dimensioning bevel/helical gear pairs. A straight line can’t be parallel to the flanks of both the gear and the pinion, which is necessary to determine “normal backlash.”
Second, hypoid and helical gears have the same angular pitch, which makes the manufacturing process easier. Hypoid bevel gears are usually made of two gears with equal angular pitches. Then, they are assembled to match one another. This reduces noise and vibration, and increases power density. It is recommended to follow the standard and avoid using gears that have mismatched angular pitches.
Third, hypoid and helical gears differ in the shape of the teeth. They are different from standard gears because the teeth are more elongated. They are similar in appearance to spiral bevel gears and worm gears, but differ in geometry. While helical gears are symmetrical, hypoid bevel gears are non-conical. As a result, they can produce higher gear ratios and torque.
Crown bevel gears
The geometrical design of bevel gears is extremely complex. The relative contact position and flank form deviations affect both the paired gear geometry and the tooth bearing. In addition, paired gears are also subject to process-linked deviations that affect the tooth bearing and backlash. These characteristics require the use of narrow tolerance fields to avoid quality issues and production costs. The relative position of a miter gear depends on the operating parameters, such as the load and speed.
When selecting a crown bevel gear for a miter-gear system, it is important to choose one with the right tooth shape. The teeth of a crown-bevel gear can differ greatly in shape. The radial pitch and diametral pitch cone angles are the most common. The tooth cone angle, or “zerol” angle, is the other important parameter. Crown bevel gears have a wide range of tooth pitches, from flat to spiral.
Crown bevel gears for miter gear are made of high-quality materials. In addition to metal, they can be made of plastic or pre-hardened alloys. The latter are preferred as the material is less expensive and more flexible than steel. Furthermore, crown bevel gears for miter gears are extremely durable, and can withstand extreme conditions. They are often used to replace existing gears that are damaged or worn.
When selecting a crown bevel gear for a miter gear, it is important to know how they relate to each other. This is because the crown bevel gears have a 1:1 speed ratio with a pinion. The same is true for miter gears. When comparing crown bevel gears for miter gears, be sure to understand the radii of the pinion and the ring on the pinion.
Shaft angle requirements for miter gears
Miter gears are used to transmit motion between intersecting shafts at a right angle. Their tooth profile is shaped like the mitre hat worn by a Catholic bishop. Their pitch and number of teeth are also identical. Shaft angle requirements vary depending on the type of application. If the application is for power transmission, miter gears are often used in a differential arrangement. If you’re installing miter gears for power transmission, you should know the mounting angle requirements.
Shaft angle requirements for miter gears vary by design. The most common arrangement is perpendicular, but the axes can be angled to almost any angle. Miter gears are also known for their high precision and high strength. Their helix angles are less than ten degrees. Because the shaft angle requirements for miter gears vary, you should know which type of shaft angle you require before ordering.
To determine the right pitch cone angle, first determine the shaft of the gear you’re designing. This angle is called the pitch cone angle. The angle should be at least 90 degrees for the gear and the pinion. The shaft bearings must also be capable of bearing significant forces. Miter gears must be supported by bearings that can withstand significant forces. Shaft angle requirements for miter gears vary from application to application.
For industrial use, miter gears are usually made of plain carbon steel or alloy steel. Some materials are more durable than others and can withstand higher speeds. For commercial use, noise limitations may be important. The gears may be exposed to harsh environments or heavy machine loads. Some types of gears function with teeth missing. But be sure to know the shaft angle requirements for miter gears before you order one.
