    Sprockets

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Drive Sprockets. Sprockets, For Single Strand.

    For Single Strand

    Sprocket teeth mesh with your roller chain to smoothly transmit power. These U.S.-made sprockets have machined teeth for a more precise fit than flame-cut or punched teeth, allowing them to glide in and out of the chain to reduce wear and extend chain life.
    Steel—Steel is strong, but best for dry environments since moisture will cause it to rust.
    Finished Bore—Mount these sprockets onto your shaft and secure with a set screw—no machining required.

    Bushing Bore

    Image of Attribute. Front orientation. Contains Annotated, Border. Curved (HTD) Teeth.
    Curved teeth engage with the matching belt better than standard trapezoidal teeth, so these pulleys transmit about twice the torque. All are compatible with Gates PowerGrip HTD, Omega HP, and Carlisle RPP series.
    Iron—Strong but best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.
    Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel—Stands up to wet environments and mild chemicals, such as the ammonia in cleaning solutions.
    Plain Bore—Do it your way—machine the bore to your exact shaft size or add a set screw or keyway.
    Bushing Bore—Quickly swap or service parts in tight spaces—no press-fitting or special tools required. Mount a bushing (sold separately) on your shaft and slide the pulley over it. As you tighten the included set screws, the bushing grips the shaft and draws it into the pulley, creating a final hold that is more secure than with set screws alone.

    Metal Spur Gears

    Our strongest spur gears for transferring motion. They’re better than plastic gears for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications. Combine a gear and rack to convert rotary motion into linear motion. To minimize your footprint, mount one or more standard gears inside of an internal gear.
    Combine gears with different numbers of teeth to change speed and torque in your assembly. For components to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle and pitch/module.

    20° Pressure Angle

    Round Bore

    20° Pressure Angle—The current industry standard, these 20° pressure angle spur gears have thicker, stronger teeth than 14½° pressure angle gears.
    Steel—Steel gears have hard, strong, and wear-resistant teeth, although they will rust when exposed to moisture and corrosive chemicals.

    Timing Belt Pulleys

    Keep your drive system in sync. Trapezoidal teeth mesh with matching belts to synchronize motion. With the original tooth profile, these pulleys handle enough torque for most applications. If you need high torque or precise starts and stops, consider curved tooth profiles, such as GT and HTD pulleys.
    Iron—Strong but best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.
    Bushing Bore—Quickly swap or service parts in tight spaces—no press-fitting or special tools required. Mount a bushing (sold separately) on your shaft and slide the pulley over it. As you tighten the included set screws, the bushing grips the shaft and draws it into the pulley, creating a final hold that is more secure than with set screws alone.

    When precise synchronization is crucial, these pulleys minimize play (backlash). They’re often found in 3D printers, where accurate positioning is essential. Their curved teeth fit snugly with matching belts. Compared to pulleys with standard trapezoidal teeth, these pulleys transmit about three times more torque and run at higher speeds. All are compatible with Gates PowerGrip GT, 2GT, GT2, GT3, and GT4 series.
    Corrosion-Resistant Aluminum—Won't rust in wet environments and one-third the weight of steel and iron. However, aluminum pulleys are not as strong as iron and steel.
