U.s. Tsubaki 2062B16 Double Pitch Sprocket 16T 1.5in

Product Description

The U.S. TSUBAKI 2062B16 is a double pitch sprocket designed for use with #2062 roller chain, which runs a 1.5-inch pitch. With 16 teeth and a minimum bore diameter of 0.75 inches, this sprocket suits light-to-medium duty conveyor and mechanical drive applications where standard single-pitch chain would be unnecessarily heavy or cost-prohibitive. The outside diameter measures 8.44 inches. It is typically installed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and industrial technicians working on conveyor lines, agricultural equipment, or general power transmission systems.

This sprocket is suited for industrial and commercial drive systems that use double pitch roller chain in place of standard chain to reduce weight and cost at lower speeds. Typical installations include conveyor drives, packaging equipment, and light-load power transmission assemblies. The 2062 chain trade size designation identifies the compatible chain series. Applications generally run at moderate speeds where the extended pitch of double pitch chain is acceptable within the drive design parameters.

Key Features

• 16-tooth count for consistent chain engagement in low-to-moderate speed drives
• Minimum bore diameter of 0.75 inches to accommodate standard shaft sizes
• Outside diameter of 8.44 inches for compact sprocket-to-chain clearance calculations
• Part of a standardized chain trade size series for straightforward replacement sourcing

Compatibility

Designed for use with #2062 double pitch roller chain at a 1.5-inch chain pitch. Compatible chain trade size is 2062.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or mechanical technician following applicable ANSI and OSHA lockout/tagout procedures before servicing any drive system. Ensure the drive shaft is fully de-energized and isolated before mounting or removing the sprocket. Verify shaft diameter against the minimum bore specification prior to installation, and confirm chain alignment with a straightedge or laser alignment tool to prevent premature chain and sprocket wear.
