Markets/Applications:  Poly Chain® GT® Belts  Poly Chain/Sprocket Interchange CAD & 3D Models  Use with Poly Chain GT Belts or Poly Chain GT Belts or Poly Chain GT Belts.  Features/Advantages  Full split in bushing allows easy installation and removal.  Precise sprocket design produces positive, press fi t to shaft.  Smaller, narrower sprockets save shaft space, keep the load closer to bearing and extend life of reducer.  Poly Chain GT2 Sprockets keep overhung load below manufacturers recommendation.  Sprockets are precision manufactured and static balanced.

Notes 

Sprockets for the Poly Chain GT belts are available in 8mm and 14mm pitches. 
Sprocket part numbers are comprised of pitch, number of grooves and width. For example, part number 8MX-48S-12 denotes 8mm pitch, 48 grooves, “S” for sprocket and 12mm width. 
On a sprocket, pitch is the distance between groove centers and is measured on the pitch circle of the sprocket. The pitch circle of the sprocket coincides with the pitch line of the belt mating with it. The pitch diameter of the sprocket is always greater than its outside diameter. 
Abbreviations used for sprocket materials: GI = Gray Iron DI = Ductile Iron SiS = Sintered Steel CI = Cast Iron 
WARNING: Do NOT use these sprockets with rim speeds in excess of 6,500 fpm.
