The simplex sprocket 3/8" Z16 is an SAE 1045 steel sprocket with an integrated hub, designed to transmit motion in 3/8" pitch chains. It is used in agricultural machinery, conveyors and drive equipment that require a specific transmission ratio. Since it is sold by MR, you can ask about variants and adaptations for your application.
This simplex sprocket with hub has a 3/8" pitch and 16 teeth (Z16). It is manufactured in SAE 1045 steel, a material with good mechanical strength and hardenability, suitable for continuous service. The hub allows it to be mounted directly on the shaft with a keyway or similar fastening, without the need for additional bushings. Its single-row design makes it suitable for single-chain drives, with simple alignment and reduced maintenance.
It is used in power transmission equipment such as conveyor belts, grain elevators, seeders, harvesters and industrial machinery in general. It also appears in roller movement systems, feeders and feed mechanisms where a moderate speed ratio is required. Due to its pitch and number of teeth, it is common in applications where a balance between speed and torque is sought, with low noise level and uniform wear.
To correctly select this sprocket, verify that the chain pitch matches 3/8" and that the number of teeth is adequate for the desired transmission ratio. Check the shaft diameter and the hub fastening system (keyway, set screw or flange). It is important to control the alignment between sprocket and chain, and to maintain adequate lubrication to extend the service life of the assembly. If you have doubts, ask us with your machine data.
If you need a sprocket with a different number of teeth, another pitch or a hub with special dimensions, we can source it. MR Accesorios Industriales sells split plummer block housings, ANSI chains and pulleys, as well as bearings and seals from leading brands. To request an equivalent, send us the current part number, the number of teeth and the pitch; we will reply with the corresponding reference.
