The simplex sprocket 3/8" Z60 is a sprocket supplied by MR Accesorios Industriales, designed to transmit motion in 3/8" pitch chains. Its hub allows direct mounting on the shaft with the appropriate fastening, without the need for additional parts. It is used in equipment where a specific transmission ratio and smooth running are required, such as conveyors, machine tools and lifting systems. Being made of SAE 1045 steel, it offers good resistance to wear and the loads typical of chain transmission.

This item is a simplex sprocket with hub of 3/8" pitch and 60 teeth, in SAE 1045 steel. The designation "simplex" indicates that it has a single row of teeth, and the hub is the central body that allows mounting on the shaft. The 3/8" pitch defines the compatible chain: it is an intermediate pitch widely used in moderate power transmissions. The 60 teeth provide a transmission ratio that prioritizes smoothness and reduces chain wear. MR supplies it, so tolerances and material treatment are controlled.

Typical applications of a sprocket of this type include belt or roller conveyors, machines for the food industry, lifting systems, and transmission equipment in general where a speed reduction with 3/8" pitch chain is needed. It is also found in machine tools, packaging equipment and assembly lines. Due to its number of teeth, it is common on the driven shaft, where the aim is to reduce revolutions and increase the available torque at the output.

To mount and select this sprocket correctly, take into account the shaft diameter and the hub fastening system (key, set screw or both). Verify that the chain is 3/8" pitch and that the number of teeth of the driving and driven sprockets give the desired ratio. Alignment between sprockets is critical: misalignment accelerates wear of teeth and chain. Also check lubrication and chain tension according to the equipment manual. If you need to modify the bore diameter or add a keyway, ask us.

If this sprocket does not exactly match your size, we can offer you an alternative within the same 3/8" pitch series or evaluate a similar part. To request an equivalent or a nearby size, the most practical is to send us the current part number, a photo of the part and the main measurements: outside diameter, bore diameter and hub width. With that data we can identify the closest option or directly get it made to measure.
