The simplex sprocket with hub, 5/8" pitch and 12 teeth, is a power transmission component that mounts on the shaft and meshes with the chain to transmit motion. Its hub allows it to be secured with a set screw or key, depending on the equipment design. It is a part supplied by MR Accesorios Industriales, intended for replacement and for building new drives in agricultural, industrial and transport machinery.

This item is a simplex sprocket with hub, 5/8" pitch and 12 teeth (Z12). It is manufactured in SAE 1045 steel, a material with good machinability and wear resistance. The hub is the central protruding part that allows mounting on the shaft, with space for the fastening system. The 5/8" pitch defines the compatible chain: it is an intermediate pitch, common in medium power transmissions. The 12 teeth determine the transmission ratio when combined with another wheel.

It is used in equipment that needs to transmit motion between parallel shafts with chain: seeders, harvesters, conveyor belts, mixers, chain elevators and machine tools. It is also common in the food industry and processing plants, where a robust transmission with simple maintenance is required. Being a sprocket with few teeth, it is often used as a driving wheel in reduction ratios or in the higher speed section.

To select the correct sprocket, verify that the pitch matches that of the chain (5/8"), that the number of teeth is suitable for the desired ratio and that the hub bore diameter matches the shaft. Also check the fastening system: keyway, set screw or both. During assembly, align the sprockets and tension the chain according to the equipment recommendations. Proper lubrication and correct tension extend the service life of the transmission.
