WELD-ON Sprocket

weld-on sprocket is a type of sprocket designed to be attached to a shaft or hub by welding. These sprockets do not come with pre-drilled bolt holes, keyways, or set screw options for mounting onto a shaft like other types of sprockets; instead, they are intended to be welded directly to a compatible surface.

Key features of weld-on sprockets include:

1. Welding Surface: Flat or contoured surface on the sprocket for secure welding to a shaft, hub, or mounting plate.

2. Customization: Can be welded onto various shaft sizes or configurations based on specific application requirements.

3. Permanent Attachment: Welding provides a strong and permanent connection between the sprocket and the mounting surface.

4. Versatility: Suitable for applications where traditional mounting methods like keyways or set screws may not be feasible or effective.

5. Material Compatibility: Weld-on sprockets are typically made from steel or other weldable materials.

6. Professional Welding Required: Proper welding techniques and expertise are necessary to ensure a reliable and durable attachment.

Weld-on sprockets are used in a variety of industrial applications where a permanent and robust sprocket mounting solution is needed, and where welding is a viable method for securing the sprocket to the designated surface.
