A single-row sprocket with a central hub, this component is identified by the designation Simplex sprocket 5/8" Z17 and the part number MR-PINON-SIMPLE-5-8-Z17. It is made from SAE 1045 steel and carries 17 teeth on a 5/8" pitch. The hub allows the sprocket to be mounted directly on a shaft and secured with a key, a set screw or both.

The 5/8" pitch determines which chains will mesh with this sprocket. With 17 teeth, it is a single-row (simplex) unit. SAE 1045 steel gives the body a balance of strength and toughness for chain drives. The hub is an integral part of the design, so no separate bushing or carrier is needed for basic mounting.

Chain drives in agricultural equipment, conveyors, elevators, packaging lines and general production machinery are common places to find this sprocket. It also works in any mechanism that needs a fixed speed ratio and positive engagement without slip. Because the pitch matches standard 5/8" chain, the sprocket can be added to an existing drive or specified for a new build.

Alignment with the driven sprocket is critical; misalignment accelerates wear on both the chain and the teeth. Check that the shaft diameter fits the hub bore and that the chosen fastening method suits the torque being transmitted. Proper chain tension and lubrication also affect how long the assembly lasts. Our team can help you verify these points if needed.
