Split Belted Chain Sprocket

Description

split-belted chain sprocket refers to a type of sprocket that is designed to accommodate a split or segmented belt or chain. This design allows for easier installation and removal of the belt or chain without the need to disassemble the entire drive system.

The split-belted chain sprocket typically consists of two or more separate sections that can be joined together around the belt or chain. These sections are securely fastened using bolts or other connecting mechanisms, ensuring proper alignment and engagement with the belt or chain.

The advantage of using a split-belted chain sprocket is that it simplifies maintenance and replacement of the belt or chain. In applications where frequent belt or chain changes are required, such as in conveyor systems or industrial machinery, the split design enables quick and efficient access to the belt or chain, saving time and effort.

When installing or replacing a split-belted chain sprocket, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and ensure proper alignment and tensioning of the belt or chain. Regular inspection and maintenance of the sprocket and the belt or chain are also necessary to prevent premature wear and potential system failures

Split Style Construction (hub on one side) – Once you use a Split Sprocket, you may never want to use a setscrew mount style again. Removal or installation is a breeze. Can be used in virtually all applications. An additional benefit to Black Ace’s split sprockets is that the shaft/keyway security is much tighter than a typical setscrew mount.
