Define a Sprocket?
A sprocket, sprocket-wheel, or chainwheel is a profiled wheel with teeth, or cogs, that mesh with a chain, track, or other perforated or indented material. The name 'sprocket' applies generally to any wheel upon which radial projections engage a chain passing over it.
How to Calculate Chain Pitch given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon?
Chain Pitch given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon calculator uses Pitch of Chain = Maximum Sprocket Tooth Height/(0.625-Roller Radius of Chain+0.8/Number of teeth on sprocket) to calculate the Pitch of Chain, The Chain Pitch given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon formula is defined as the distance between links, as measured from the center of the roller pin on one link to the center of the roller pin on the next link. Pitch of Chain is denoted by P symbol.
How to calculate Chain Pitch given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Chain Pitch given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon, enter Maximum Sprocket Tooth Height (hamax), Roller Radius of Chain (R) & Number of teeth on sprocket (z) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Chain Pitch given Maximum Tooth Height above Pitch Polygon calculation can be explained with given input values -> 13608.92 = 0.0089/(0.625-0.0058+0.8/23).
