Custom Nylon PA6 Chain Sprocket

中文名称:尼龙链轮

Product Overview

Custom nylon sprockets machined from PA6 or PA66 nylon bar stock. Lighter than steel, quieter operation, self-lubricating, and corrosion-resistant. Available for standard chain pitches or custom tooth profiles from customer drawings.

Technical Details

Nylon sprockets are CNC-machined from solid PA6, PA66, or MC Nylon (cast nylon) bar stock or blanks. The machining process allows precise tooth profiles conforming to DIN, ANSI, or custom specifications. Nylon sprockets are approximately 1/7 the weight of equivalent steel sprockets, significantly reducing rotating inertia and enabling faster start-stop cycles. The self-lubricating properties eliminate the need for chain lubrication in many applications, reducing maintenance and contamination risk in food and pharmaceutical environments. Nylon sprockets absorb shock and vibration, reducing noise and extending chain life. Steel hub inserts can be incorporated for high-torque applications.

Material Selection Guide

Choose PA6 for standard applications. Choose MC Nylon for large sprockets (>200mm) requiring superior mechanical properties. Specify steel hub insert for high-torque applications or when press-fit bore is required.
