A chain and sprocket drive is a type of power transmission when a roller chain engages with two or more toothed wheels or sprockets, found in engines as a drivefrom crankshaft to camshaft.
Ever-power is proud to share a wide selection of Sprockets along with this huge variety of agriculture, gardening, preparing food and outdoor products. We stand behind all 26,000 products we sell with our Satisfaction Guarantee. Customer Service may be the cornerstone of us business, and has recently been for over 50 years.
Application
Ever-power drive sprockets provide rugged, reliable service and feature replaceable tooth plates for easy field maintenance. Tooth plates for 102 and 142 series chain can be found with a segmental/symmetrical reversible tooth profile. The 142 DBL, TPL in addition to the 175 and 260 series use our nonsymmetrical profile.
Travel sprockets weren’t always designed to be bolted in. At one time they were welded onto the final drive motor and had to be cut off if they were replaced. Eventually, welded-on adapters were mounted that allowed the sprocket to become bolted on, and more modern designs use the bolted approach altogether.
When someone sends in your final drive motor for us to take a look at or?rebuild/reman, we advise them to remove the sprocket. We don’t want the sprocket in spot to evaluate the motor and the added weight (and this can be significant) unnecessarily raises your shipping costs.
Signs of Sprocket Wear
One’s teeth on a travel sprocket are where you look for wear . They must be tall and flat towards the end, not sharp or dished by the end. And the sprocket, and more specifically its teeth, begin to wear, its diameter becomes more compact. This causes what is referred to as a pitch mismatch, where the the teeth on the sprocket no more connect to the track links as effectively. This can accelerate the use of the sprocket and decrease the efficiency of your devices.
If your sprocket shows sign of excessive wear, then its time to displace it before it starts to cause abnormal track wear or begins to negatively affect the performance of your final drive motor.
Preventing Sprocket Wear
Among the key methods to prevent accelerated sprocket put on is to check on the track tension. If the strain is too tight, it’ll cause use on the sprocket the teeth. We’ve talked before about the value of keeping the undercarriage clean, and the condition of the undercarriage make a difference the track tension (especially if there is usually a build up of dried mud and particles). That’s part of the reason we put so much focus on keeping the undercarriage clean
Conclusion
With out a functioning drive sprocket, your track drive won’t have the ability to propel your equipment. Fortunately, there are ways to help your drive sprocket go longer: keep the track pressure at an effective level and retain your undercarriage clean.
DRIVE SPROCKET
The undercarriage of your track machine ought to be inspected regularly. If you discover early wear or damage to your tracks, a put on sprocket may be the cause.

Parts can vary depending on your serial number.
All Ever-power sprocket tooth profiles are induction hardened to 55 Rockwell C., and so are replaceable. The replacement and repair of tooth plate segments does not require removal of the travel shaft, bearings, etc. Ever-power also designs custom split hub elements for retrofit applications that minimize field labor costs.
At initially glance, you might feel that if you’ve seen one drive sprocket, you’ve seen all of them. However, Ever-power possesses added an I.D. lip and spiral band that captivate the needle bearing along with an external snap ring that boosts performance and stability. While easy to overlook, it’s this focus on detail that the racer provides come to expect from Ever-power.
