18-Tooth Pitch Diameter 2.879 in

The pitch diameter of 2.879 inches and 18 teeth define the speed ratio and chain engagement for 1/2-inch pitch chain. This single dimension determines whether the sprocket matches the required drive ratio and centre-distance calculation.

Builders assembling or repairing #40 chain drives on a 5/8-inch shaft with a 3/16-inch keyway will find the bore, keyway depth of 3/32 inch and hub projection of 0.716 inch compatible.

Questions about this item

What does the 18-tooth count mean when the sprocket is installed on a shaft?

The 18 teeth engage a 40 chain at a 2.879 in pitch diameter, giving a fixed speed ratio relative to the driven sprocket.

How does the 1/2 in chain pitch limit the chain I can use?

It only accepts single-strand 40 chain with a 1/2 in pitch; other pitches will not mesh correctly.

What shaft size and keyway does the 5/8 in bore with 3/16 in keyway require?

It fits a 5/8 in diameter shaft and needs a 3/16 in wide by 3/32 in deep keyway slot.
