The plain sprocket with hub, 5/8" pitch and 26 teeth, is a power transmission sprocket that mounts on a shaft to drive roller chains. Its hub allows it to be secured with a set screw or key, without the need for additional bushings. Sold by MR in SAE 1045 steel, it is a part designed for moderate-speed, continuous-load mechanisms, such as those found in conveyors, elevators and agricultural machinery.

This item is a plain sprocket with hub with a 5/8" pitch and 26 teeth (z), machined in SAE 1045 steel. The full designation is Plain sprocket 5/8" Z26. The 5/8" pitch corresponds to roller chains of that standard pitch, and the 26 teeth define the transmission ratio when combined with another sprocket on the same chain. The hub is the protruding central part that allows direct mounting on the shaft and securing by screw, key or both.

It is used in machine chain drives where a shaft needs to be driven at moderate speed with good load capacity. It appears in belt or roller conveyors, bucket elevators, seeders, harvesters, mixers and process equipment. It is also found in the drive of pumps, fans and compressors when mounting space is limited and a sprocket with hub is preferred over a flat disc.

To select it, check that the pitch matches the chain (5/8"), that the 26 teeth give the desired ratio and that the shaft diameter fits the hub. Axial securing should be done with a set screw on a flat spot on the shaft or with a key if the torque is high. Check the alignment between sprocket and chain: angular or parallel misalignment accelerates wear on teeth and rollers. Lubricate with oil or grease according to speed and environment.

If you need an equivalent sprocket or a nearby size, send us the code MR-PINON-SIMPLE-5-8-Z26 or the chain and shaft data. We can offer other tooth counts within the same 5/8" pitch or hub variants according to your mounting. We also offer custom work within our power transmission line. The more data you give us (pitch, teeth, shaft diameter, type of securing), the faster we can provide the alternative.

MR Accesorios Industriales sells this sprocket in SAE 1045 steel. If you want to inquire about this size or a variant, send the code by WhatsApp and we will reply with the quote. We can also advise you on the chain and complementary components for your drive.
