Transmission Chain Sprockets
Power transmission sprockets are an essential part to move Roller chains in order to transmit power, their typically designed round shape with heat treated teeths give strength to transmit power at speeds & higher loads also. Simply Chains cannot run without them, these are available in both with HUB and Without HUB designs to suit all applications

Luan Dung also supplies sprockets to replace most competitors' products. We welcome all inquiries.
Materials
RPV, RP and SC sprockets are typically made from carbon steel or ductile iron, with sprocket teeth hardened to Rockwell hardness of Rc 50. For RP and SC only, some sprocket sizes are available in class 30 gray iron with unhardened teeth. Other materials are available subject to customer preference, sprocket size, cost, and availability.
Performance Guidelines
In general, larger sprocket diameters will provide for smoother operation, less vibration, and longer life. We recommend using sprockets with at least 21 teeth whenever possible. Also, to assure proper meshing of sprockets and chain we recommend they be purchased from the same source.
Guide Type
Similar to chains, most sprockets fall into one of two categories: center guide or side guide.
- Center Guide: A groove machined in the center of the sprocket face accepts the chain's center guide link. Two grooves are machined for two center guide. Side Guide The sprocket fits between the chain's side guide plates.
- Side Guide: The sprocket fits between the chain's side guide plates.
