Roller Chains with U Type Attachments
16B-U2F1/16B-U2F5/16B-U2F2/16B-U2F3

Roller Chains with U Type attachments feature vulcanized rubber profiles that reduce the chance of damaging the product during transport. These can be used in a variety of traditional applications such as furniture, glass, ceramic tiles, or woodworking. There are many profiles available, and they can be matched to ensure compatibility. Other features include SNAP ON attachments for certain sizes and matched pairs to create parallel chains.

Chains can be manufactured from a variety of materials, including stainless steel. The right material for your application will depend on many factors such as cost, environment, and transmission speed. Manufacturers can optimize materials for specific applications by considering these factors. Chain weights can vary and should be selected in line with their load capacity and pitch.

First, determine the right attachment type for your application to replace a damaged chain. You will also need to know which sprockets are compatible with the chain. These chains usually have 2 sprockets. However, if you need to replace the connecting piece, an offset chain is available.

This type of chain consists of an outer plate and an inner link. The cross rod connects these 2 parts. The cross rod distributes the load evenly among the 2 chains, and it does not twist.

Sprockets for Roller Chains

The essential component of a roller chain is its sprocket. Sprockets are used to move the chain in a specific direction and come in many materials. You can choose from bronze, cast iron, and aluminum, as well as manganese steel. You can also find sprockets in different sizes, from 0.05 inches up to 48 inches.

Most sprockets are milled or forged. Some may be flame-cut. Sprockets can be made in segments, halves, or with an integral shaft. They may be made from various materials, including steel and plastic. Hybrid versions of sprockets may feature metal wheels with plastic teeth. Sprocket manufacturers generally work with ISO and ANSI roller chains.

The sprocket selection for roller chains is essential to the efficiency of transmission and smooth rotation. The type of sprocket you choose also determines the life of the chain. Many manufacturers of sprockets for roller chains offer sprockets with standard shaft diameters or sprockets that meet JIS standards.

Sprockets for roller chains can vary in size and pitch. Generally, a chain with large pitch diameter requires sprockets with large teeth, while smaller chains with smaller pitch diameters will require sprockets with smaller teeth. The number of teeth per inch is also important, and a sprocket’s tooth pitch and sprocket’s bore are essential in choosing the right sprocket for the drive shaft.

Another factor to consider when choosing the sprockets is the transmission horsepower. A higher transmission horsepower will require larger sprockets than a small one, so you need to choose an appropriately sized chain.
