Double Pitch Conveyor Sprocket Manufacturer - Shreeji Gears

Precision Double Pitch Sprockets

Shreeji Gears is a leading double pitch sprocket manufacturer, specializing in sprockets designed for double pitch or extended pitch roller chains. These are commonly used in conveyor systems and other applications where long chain lengths and lighter loads are involved.

Our sprockets are precision machined from quality steel to ensure accurate chain engagement and long service life. We manufacture sprockets compatible with both standard and carrier roller double pitch chains.

Understanding Double Pitch Sprockets

Double pitch sprockets are designed for double pitch roller chains, which have link plates with twice the pitch length of standard chains. This extended pitch design offers several advantages for specific applications, particularly long-run conveyors.

Key Characteristics:

  • Extended Pitch: The primary feature is having twice the pitch of a comparable standard sprocket/chain.
  • Chain Types: Designed for:
    • Standard Roller Double Pitch Chain: Uses standard diameter rollers.
    • Carrier Roller Double Pitch Chain: Uses larger diameter carrier rollers that can ride directly on conveyor supports.
  • Weight & Cost Savings: For long conveyor runs, double pitch chains are lighter and more cost-effective than standard pitch chains.

Advantages:

  • Ideal for long center distance conveyor applications.
  • Lighter chain weight compared to standard pitch for similar strength.
  • Cost-effective solution for many conveying tasks.
