OEM factory direct 16B-3-17T Triplex sprockets

Deliver exceptional power transmission capacity in demanding industrial applications with our precision-engineered 16B-3-17T triplex sprocket. Designed for high-torque, multi-strand drive systems, this three-row sprocket enables three parallel chains to operate simultaneously from a single component, effectively tripling the load-carrying capability compared to a single-strand unit. Ideal for heavy-duty conveyors, mining equipment, industrial gearboxes, and large agricultural machinery, it provides a compact, robust solution for synchronized power distribution where space is at a premium. Built for both OEM integration and replacement maintenance, this 16B-3 configuration ensures reliable, long-term performance in the most challenging environments.

Triple-Strand Power Density:

The 16B-3-17T design features three precisely machined tooth rows on a single blank, allowing three separate chains to transfer power to multiple driven shafts. This triples the torque capacity without increasing the number of shafts or bearings, saving valuable space and reducing system complexity.

Premium Alloy Steel Construction:

Manufactured from high-strength 20CrMnTi or C45 carbon steel, this triplex sprocket undergoes carburizing or induction hardening to achieve a tough, wear-resistant surface (50-60 HRC) while retaining a ductile core. This ensures exceptional durability under heavy shock loads and continuous operation, minimizing downtime and replacement costs.

CNC-Hobbed Precision for Smooth Engagement:

Each tooth profile is generated using advanced CNC hobbing, guaranteeing accurate pitch diameter and tooth spacing in accordance with DIN 8187/ISO 606 standards. This results in seamless chain engagement across all three strands, reducing vibration, noise, and wear on both sprocket and chains for extended system life.

Customizable Mounting Solutions:

Available with finished bore, pilot bore, or custom taper bore to suit your specific shaft dimensions. Keyways and set screw positions can be tailored to your requirements, ensuring a secure, backlash-free fit that simplifies installation and maintenance.

Our triplex sprockets are manufactured in an ISO9001:2015 certified facility, ensuring rigorous quality control at every stage from raw material inspection to final packaging. All materials are sourced with full traceability, and Material Test Reports (MTR) are available upon request to verify chemical composition and mechanical properties. Products comply with RoHS and REACH environmental directives, meeting the strict regulatory requirements of North American and European markets. Heat treatment processes are validated with hardness testing reports, ensuring consistent quality across every batch.

Tooth Profile Accuracy:

Precision hobbed to DIN 6 quality or better, ensuring correct engagement with 16B roller chain and minimizing chordal action.

Inter-Row Alignment:

Stringent tolerance control between the three tooth rows guarantees parallel chain tracking, preventing binding and uneven wear across all strands.

Pitch Diameter Tolerance:

Maintained within ±0.05mm to ensure consistent speed ratios and load sharing in multi-shaft drives.

Surface Finish:

Burr-free tooth flanks and hub surfaces for safe handling and immediate installation.

Concentricity:

Strict control of bore-to-outer diameter concentricity (IT8 grade) minimizes rotational vibration at operational speeds.

Custom Modifications:

We can adjust hub width, keyway size, and provide special coatings (e.g., black oxide, zinc plating) for corrosion resistance in harsh environments.
