Our selection of chains and sprockets includes:

ASA and BS Roller chains:

Offering strong power transmission and durability, roller chains are great for heavy-duty applications such as conveyors and excavators. They are available in a range of pitch sizes and strengths.

BS Sprockets:

Designed to work with BS roller chains, the BS sprockets can deliver excellent power transfer and help extend the chain lifetime. They are available in a range of tooth counts and bore sizes.

Idler Sprockets:

These can prevent chain sagging and premature wear by maintaining proper chain tensions and alignment. We have a range of idler sprocket types available to choose from, including pressed steel, cast iron, and cast steel.

Platewheels:

Also known as flat sprockets, platewheels are great for conveyor systems and material handling equipment where flat-faced sprockets are needed to engage with the chains.

Connector Links:

Connector links are used to join or repair roller chains and sprockets, providing a strong connection. We have a range of connector links available for a range of applications, including cotter pin and clip-type connectors.

Selecting the Right Sprocket

To ensure top performance, selecting the right sprocket is essential. Some of the factors to consider are:
Chain type and size: Make sure that your sprockets will be compatible with your chain.
Number of teeth: The appropriate number of teeth will depend on the desired speed reduction or increase.
Material: Choose the right material to withstand the operating conditions.
Bore size: Select the correct bore size to fit your shaft.
