For chain drives that need a 5/8" pitch and a 60-tooth simplex sprocket, this hub-style toothed wheel is a direct option. The hub gives you a broader seating area on the shaft and accepts set screws or a key for locking. MR supplies this sprocket for replacement and assembly work where the ratio calls for 60 teeth on a 5/8" chain.

The part is built from SAE 1045 carbon steel, a material common in power transmission that can be hardened and tempered to suit the application. In the code Simplex sprocket 5/8" Z60, the first term tells you it is a single-row design, the fraction is the chain pitch, and Z60 is the tooth count. The hub is the raised center section that receives the shaft; its exact diameter and length should be checked against the manufacturer's data before ordering.

Typical installations include conveyors, elevators, mixers, agricultural equipment, belt systems and other material handling machinery. You will also find this size in gearboxes and drives where a 60-tooth wheel on 5/8" pitch chain is used to step speed up or torque down at the output. It is often chosen when an original sprocket has worn or when a ratio change is needed.

When selecting, confirm three things: the chain pitch is 5/8", the tooth count of 60 matches the ratio you want, and the hub bore fits your shaft. Decide how the sprocket will be locked in place, whether by set screw, key, or both. At installation, line the sprocket up with the driven wheel, set the chain tension correctly, and apply lubrication based on the duty cycle. Poor alignment or overtensioning will reduce the life of both the chain and the teeth.
