Metric Sprockets Overview
TL Taper Bushed Metric Sprockets
TL Sprockets are stocked in a wide variety of sizes which includes ISO 06B, 08B, 10B, 12B, 16B and 20B chain sizes (3/8 to 1-1/4” pitch) for single, double and triple chain. These install with standard TL tapered bushings from 1008 thru 5050 (i.e., thru a 5” or 125mm shaft diameter). TL Sprockets can be found in an array of diameters to accommodate various app speeds. The more popular sizes are stocked with hardened tooth. The C45 materials, standard steel sprockets, permits induction hardening of teeth. So all could be warmth treated Hardened Teeth on ask for. The TL Taper Bushed Sprocket provides a accurate concentric match to the shaft. As the TL bushing screws are tightened, the bushing compresses around the shaft securely. Standard hex wrenches will be the only tool required for installation or removal. After the bushing mounting screws are loosened and eliminated, the screw is definitely re-used and threaded in to the bushing removal hole. Tightening the removal screw will lightly loosen the sprocket. PTI stocks both metric and inch bore TL bushings, a typical global design, which is why the TL sprocket is indeed versatile. Simple installation, concentric shaft fit, suitable for higher speeds and weighty loads plus an economical price, make this the popular choice for new designs and replacement needs. TL sprockets are usually less expensive than customized or completed bored sprockets. Hub Type Metric Sprockets Hub Type Metric Sprockets can be found with a minimum plain bore (pilot bore) and some stock completed bore sizes. Any shaft size can be done with our custom made bore and keyway capacity. Sprockets with hubs are usually fitted to the shaft as a clearance match. They are held set up with two set screws and a keyway. Clearance fits are popular for light loads and sluggish speeds. A press suit (or shrink suit to the shaft) is normally favored for higher speeds or heavier loads as they match to the shaft more securely than a clearance fit sprocket. According to the clearance of the shaft suit, sprockets may work slightly on the shaft leading to feasible fretting or shaft wear. All regular hub sprockets can be found with hardened the teeth from stock or on ask for. Press fits usually need the sprocket to be heated for installation to broaden the 
bore. As a heated sprocket cools, it shrinks, conforming to the shaft with a tight grip. A established screw secures the key. The TL Taper Bushed Sprocket will function just like the press fit sprocket and generally simpler to install. Plate Type Metric Sprockets Plate Sprockets for one, dual or triple strand chain are an economical choice allowing for immediate mounting to the customers’ hub or shaft. They are most regularly considered for sprockets above 40 teeth and are available in a wide range of diameters.

Weld on Hubs A Weld-On-Hub is frequently used to simplify mounting, especially large diameter sprockets. PTI stocks regular TL Weld-OnHub sizes.
