EP \u23000.75\u2033 Triple-Strand American Sprocket \u2014 No.100-3 \u0633\u06cc\u0631\u06cc\u0632<\/h2>\n

The EP No.100-3 is a triple-strand American sprocket \u2014 meaning it runs three parallel #100 roller chains simultaneously on a single hub. Built to ANSI\/ASME B29.1, the No.100-3 American sprocket shares its chain pitch (1-1\/4″ \/ 31.75 mm) and roller diameter (0.750″ \/ 19.05 mm) with the single-strand No.100 family, but its defining dimensional parameters are the three tooth width values: b1 = 0.669″ (the individual strand tooth width), B2 = 2.077″ (the combined two-inner-strand measurement), and B3 = 3.485″ (the full triplex hub width). Together, three strands of No.100 chain on this American sprocket approximately triple the torque capacity of a single-strand installation without requiring any change to shaft centre distances, chain pitch, or drive housing geometry. For engineers in the United States, Colombia, and other ANSI-standard markets who have exhausted the load capacity of a single-strand drive in a given pitch, the No.100-3 is the direct engineering answer.<\/p>\n

The product range covers tooth counts from 11 through 80 in Type B (flanged hub) and Type C (extended hub) constructions \u2014 no Type A exists in triplex format, because the hub engagement requirements of a triple-strand American sprocket always demand the more substantial hub cross-sections that Types B and C provide. Part numbers follow the ANSI E-series triplex convention: E100B11 (Type B, 11 teeth) through E100C80 (Type C, 80 teeth). Stock bore units in common tooth counts are available for rapid dispatch; custom bore, extended hub, and surface treatment options are produced to order using the same CNC machining infrastructure.<\/p>\n

2. Five Key Advantages of the No.100-3 American Sprocket<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\u2713 Triple Torque Capacity Without a Pitch Change<\/div>\n

The most practical advantage of the No.100-3 American sprocket is that three parallel chain strands multiply torque capacity approximately threefold versus a single-strand installation \u2014 while keeping the chain pitch, shaft centre distance, and sprocket pitch circle diameter completely unchanged. For engineers who have designed a drive around No.100 chain and subsequently need more torque \u2014 due to increased product weight, faster throughput, or added conveyor sections \u2014 switching from a single-strand drive to this triple-strand configuration requires changing only the sprockets and adding two additional chain strands. No new housing, no new shaft calculation, no chain pitch redesign. This is why double chain sprocket gear and triple-strand configurations are a preferred upgrade path in heavy industrial conveyor engineering.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2713 Fully ANSI B29.1 Compliant Triple-Strand Geometry<\/div>\n

All dimensional parameters \u2014 b1, B2, B3, pitch circle diameter, tooth profile seating curve \u2014 conform to ANSI\/ASME B29.1 specifications for No.100-3 triple-strand roller chain sprockets. The part numbering follows the E-series ANSI convention (E100B11 through E100C80), which is an internationally recognised identifier system for American standard chain sprockets in this strand count. Procurement teams in the United States, Canada, and Colombia can specify this product using the ANSI part number directly, without requiring additional engineering interpretation. Documentation for OSHA machinery compliance and ANSI B29.1 Technical File requirements is available at order placement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2713 Type B and C Hubs Engineered for Heavy Loads<\/div>\n

This product is offered only in Type B (flanged hub) and Type C (extended hub) constructions \u2014 by engineering design, not by product limitation. A triple-strand American sprocket generates hub bending moments from three simultaneous chain strand tensions, and those moments require the hub engagement depth and wall thickness that only Types B and C can structurally provide. Type B handles the Z=11 to Z=30 range with Dm values up to 5-3\/4″ and A values up to 4-3\/4″; Type C serves Z=35 through Z=80 with Dm rising to 7-1\/2″ and A to 5″ \u2014 hub dimensions appropriate to the shaft diameters and bending load levels typical of heavy industrial conveyor and mining auxiliary drive applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2713 CNC Tooth Precision Across Three Strand Faces<\/div>\n

Producing a consistent ANSI B29.1-conforming tooth profile across all three strand engagement faces \u2014 maintaining b1, B2, and B3 tolerances simultaneously \u2014 is a genuine manufacturing challenge that separates CNC-machined product from conventionally hobbed alternatives. Our triple-strand American sprocket production uses multi-axis CNC machining centres that hold all three width dimensions and the tooth seating curve to ANSI tolerance simultaneously, ensuring that load distribution across the three chain strands is as equal as the tooth geometry permits. Unequal tooth width machining leads to one strand carrying disproportionate load \u2014 accelerating that strand’s chain wear and shortening the overall drive service life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2713 Stock and Custom Supply from One Qualified Source<\/div>\n

Commonly specified No.100-3 American sprocket sizes \u2014 Type B units at Z=11 to Z=26, and selected Type C tooth counts \u2014 are held in stock for immediate dispatch. Custom bore configurations, keyway modifications, and extended hub variants are produced using the same CNC tooling with full dimensional documentation. For OEM machinery builders and industrial maintenance teams in Colombia who need both standard replacement kettenrad zahnrader-equivalent quick-turn items and custom engineered components from the same American sprocket manufacturer, this integrated supply capability eliminates the quality and traceability inconsistency that arises when sourcing the two needs separately from different sprocket manufacturers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

3. How the No.100-3 Triple-Strand American Sprocket Works<\/h2>\n

An American sprocket transfers power through mechanical engagement between its teeth and the rollers of a roller chain. In a triple-strand configuration, this engagement happens simultaneously across three parallel chain loops running side by side on the same hub. As the drive shaft rotates, the three sets of tooth faces push their respective chain rollers forward in synchrony, pulling all three chain strands and driving the output shaft through the matched triple-strand sprocket on the other end. When the installation is correctly aligned and the three chain strands have equal tension, the transmitted torque is shared approximately equally across the three strand engagements \u2014 the mechanical basis for the torque capacity multiplication that makes this configuration a practical engineering choice.<\/p>\n

The tooth profile geometry for this American sprocket is governed by ANSI\/ASME B29.1 for No.100-3. The individual strand tooth width b1 = 0.669″ is the face dimension that each of the three chain inner link plate pairs straddles. This 0.669″ width is calibrated for the 0.750″ roller of No.100 chain: the roller seats into the tooth pocket arc and rolls against the tooth flank seating curve as the chain enters and exits engagement. B2 = 2.077″ represents the combined width of the first and second strand tooth faces plus the inter-strand gap \u2014 the dimension that governs alignment of the middle chain strand. B3 = 3.485″ is the full hub width from the outer face of strand 1’s tooth to the outer face of strand 3’s tooth, and it is this dimension that drives housing clearance and shaft shoulder positioning in the drive layout.<\/p>\n

A critical alignment requirement distinguishes triple-strand American sprocket drives from single-strand installations: all three chain strands must maintain equal tension throughout the drive’s operating range. If one strand is significantly tighter or looser than the others, that strand bears disproportionate load and its rollers will wear the corresponding tooth faces on the American sprocket at a faster rate than the other two. This is why triple-strand drives require careful chain take-up adjustment and \u2014 where high precision is critical \u2014 roller chain links matched within the same manufacturing lot to minimise length variation between strands. This requirement applies to all multi-strand ANSI sprocket installations across the pitch range.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

4. Material and Surface Treatment<\/h2>\n

C45 medium-carbon steel is the standard production material for the No.100-3 American sprocket. For a triple-strand American sprocket, material selection is even more critical than for a single-strand unit: the combined bending moment on the hub from three chain strand tensions, and the multiplied contact stress at each tooth flank face, place greater structural demand on the base material. C45 provides the tensile strength (600\u2013800 MPa normalised) and machinability for CNC triplex tooth-profile cutting, responding reliably to induction hardening at 50\u201358 HRC. The hard surface protects against rolling contact wear; the tough core absorbs combined bending and torsional loading without brittle fracture.<\/p>\n

When considering what is the best steel for sprockets in a No.100-3 context, C45 with induction-hardened flanks is the well-established industrial answer for continuous-load applications. Alternatives exist: some custom sprocket manufacturer operations produce No.100-3 American sprocket units in alloy steels such as 4140 or 4340 for extreme shock-load applications \u2014 oil well pumpjacks, heavy quarry crushers \u2014 where the core toughness of plain carbon steel at high hardness levels may be insufficient. These alloy-steel American sprocket variants are produced on a custom basis and should be specified with both core hardness and flank hardness targets defined in the OEM drawing.<\/p>\n

Stainless steel sprockets & gears are available in AISI 304 or 316L for No.100-3 American sprocket installations in corrosive environments. The 316L grade is recommended for wash-down zones in Colombian and US food processing facilities where chlorinated cleaning agents are regularly applied. Black oxide treatment offers a mild corrosion deterrent and provides the steel stock sprocket with a distinctive dark finish useful for component identification in dense multi-sprocket drive arrangements. All surface treatment options are RoHS-compliant; SVHC declarations under REACH Regulation are available on request for customers with European regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n

The No.100-3 triple-strand American sprocket is specified wherever a single-strand or duplex No.100 drive has insufficient torque capacity, but upgrading to a larger chain pitch would require redesigning the drive system. The following sectors represent the principal deployment environments for this American sprocket in current industrial practice.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\u2699 Heavy Industrial Conveyors<\/div>\n

Aggregate processing plants, cement clinker handling conveyors, and steel mill coil transfer conveyors specify the No.100-3 American sprocket at drive head drums where the combined chain tension from a fully loaded conveyor belt requires more strand capacity than a single or duplex American sprocket can provide. The Type C variants at Z=45 to Z=80 \u2014 with hub widths up to 5″ and Dm values up to 7-1\/2″ \u2014 provide the shaft engagement depth needed for the large conveyor drive shafts typical in these applications. In Colombian cement and aggregate processing facilities where US-standard machinery is common, ANSI B29.1 conformance of these units simplifies the procurement documentation required for equipment installation and maintenance audits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2699 Agricultural Heavy-Duty Drives<\/div>\n

Large-scale combine harvesters, cane mill primary drives, and cotton gin line shafts use triple-strand American sprocket configurations where the main power transmission stage must handle both continuous high torque and cyclical shock loads from crop material surges. The No.100-3 at mid-range tooth counts \u2014 Z=15 to Z=26 for drive sprockets, Z=30 to Z=45 for driven units \u2014 covers the ratio range typical of these agricultural main drive stages. In Colombia’s sugar-cane and palm-oil processing sectors, where machinery from US and Colombian OEMs both require ANSI-documented spare parts, the E-series ANSI part number of this American sprocket provides unambiguous identification for replacement kettenrad zahnrader procurement from qualified sprocket manufacturers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2699 Mining and Extraction Equipment<\/div>\n

Longwall conveyor face drives, dragline bucket chain mechanisms, and mineral processing plant crusher feeder conveyors represent some of the most demanding American sprocket applications in the No.100-3 range. At Z=60 to Z=80 in Type C construction \u2014 tip circles of 24.600″ to 32.570″ and weights of 217 to 313 lb \u2014 these are substantial mechanical components in their own right. In Colombia’s coal mining regions (Cesar, La Guajira) and gold and nickel extraction operations (Antioquia, C\u00f3rdoba), ANSI-standard American sprocket components are the specification default for US-brand and international-brand mining equipment, and parts procurement follows ANSI B29.1 dimensional conformity as the acceptance standard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2699 Oil and Gas Processing Facilities<\/div>\n

Pipeline pig launcher conveyors, compressor station auxiliary drives, and oil sands processing plant belt-feeder drives use triple-strand American sprocket units where both high torque and operational reliability over long unserviced intervals are design priorities. The No.100-3 American sprocket in Type B and C configurations \u2014 with maximum bore diameters to 5-5\/8″ in the largest tooth counts \u2014 accommodates the shaft diameters typical of oil and gas processing drive equipment. In Colombia’s Llanos Orientales and Magdalena Medio oil production regions, ANSI-standard industrial sprockets and gears are the maintenance parts standard for equipment operated by international oil companies whose technical specifications reference ANSI B29.1.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2699 Power Generation \u2014 Chain Grate and Ash Handling<\/div>\n

Biomass fuel chain grate stokers, waste-to-energy facility chain conveyors, and ash drag chain systems in power generation plants commonly use No.100-3 American sprocket components for main drive head and return shaft applications. The very slow speed, high sustained tension, and continuous duty cycle of chain grate systems favour the triple-strand American sprocket format: the three strands distribute wear across more total link contacts, extending the period between major drive overhauls. Type C American sprocket units at Z=35 to Z=60 cover the grate speed ratios used in most utility-scale biomass boiler configurations, and the ANSI E-series part numbering ensures replacement procurement can reference published dimensional standards rather than OEM-only part numbers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2699 Pulp, Paper and Forestry Industry Drives<\/div>\n

Pulp digester drive chains, log deck main chains, and paper mill chip conveyor drives specify triple-strand American sprocket units where the combined load of wet, heavy process material pushed along chip conveyors or log decks exceeds single-strand ANSI chain capacity at No.100 pitch. The No.100-3 American sprocket in this context provides the commercial advantages of a familiar ANSI pitch \u2014 widespread supply, documented dimensions, ANSI B29.1 engineering references \u2014 while meeting the torque requirements that would otherwise force a pitch escalation. Colombian pulp and wood products processors serving international markets increasingly specify ANSI-standard chains and sprockets and gears to align their maintenance parts with the global supply base of their machinery OEM partners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

6. Regional Standards and Regulatory Context<\/h2>\n

The No.100-3 American sprocket is subject to the same regulatory and standards frameworks as other ANSI sprocket components, with the added weight documentation requirement that affects the classification of heavy transmission components in some jurisdictions.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

USA \u2014 ANSI B29.1 and OSHA 1910.219<\/strong><\/p>\n

ANSI\/ASME B29.1 governs the dimensional conformance of this American sprocket in the US market. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.219 requires mechanical drive guards on exposed chain drives, and heavy triple-strand American sprocket installations in industrial facilities typically trigger OSHA hazard review for both the chain tension forces and the pinch point risks at the sprocket’s chain-engagement zone. ANSI B29.1 conformity documentation supports OSHA technical file review.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Colombia \u2014 DIAN, RETIE, ICONTEC, and Sector Regs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Colombian import of this American sprocket falls under DIAN HS code 8483.40.90. The RETIE electrical safety regulation covers motorised drive systems incorporating this American sprocket. ICONTEC adopts ANSI B29.1 as a reference for American standard chain sprockets in Colombia. Mining and extraction applications require additional sector-specific documentation from ANLA (environmental licensing) and ANM (mining authority). For food processing, INVIMA hygiene material records apply to stainless steel American sprocket variants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Canada \u2014 ASME B29.1 and Provincial OHS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Canada uses ASME B29.1 as the chain sprocket standard, consistent with US ANSI adoption. Provincial occupational health and safety legislation (Ontario OHSA, Alberta OHS Act, BC OHS Regulation) requires guarding on exposed American sprocket chain drives in workplaces. Canadian machinery buyers should ensure imported American sprocket units reference ASME B29.1 in dimensional documentation for provincial safety authority inspection purposes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

EU \u2014 Machinery Regulation and ANSI Cross-Reference<\/strong><\/p>\n

EU-market machinery incorporating this American sprocket must carry CE marking based on Machinery Directive 2006\/42\/EC (or Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023\/1230 from 2027). ANSI B29.1 is not a harmonised EU standard, but is internationally recognised and routinely referenced in Technical Files for machinery designed to ANSI specifications. American sprocket components for CE-marked machines should be documented with dimensional conformity records in the Technical File.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Hazardous Locations \u2014 ATEX \/ NEC<\/strong><\/p>\n

In oil and gas, mining, and chemical processing facilities where explosive atmospheres may be present, the mechanical drive incorporating this American sprocket must comply with ATEX Directive 2014\/34\/EU (EU) or NEC 500\/505 (US). The sprocket itself is a passive mechanical component, but the entire drive system \u2014 motor, coupling, sprocket, chain \u2014 must be correctly classified for the zone hazard level. Chain lubrication products and enclosure materials also require hazardous location compliance in these installations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

RoHS and REACH<\/strong><\/p>\n

Surface treatments on this American sprocket \u2014 including black oxide, zinc phosphate, and electroless nickel \u2014 comply with EU RoHS Directive 2011\/65\/EU and REACH Regulation EC 1907\/2006 for products supplied into EU-market machinery. SVHC substance declarations are available in the compliance documentation package on request for buyers whose own regulatory obligations require American sprocket component REACH records.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

7. Compatible Products \u2014 Matched System Supply<\/h2>\n

A No.100-3 American sprocket requires three matched strands of #100 roller chain and \u2014 in most industrial applications \u2014 a speed reduction input stage. We supply both from the same qualified manufacturing network, providing a single verified source for the complete drive assembly.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Triple-Strand ANSI #100 Roller Chain<\/h3>\n

Three strands of ANSI #100 roller chain<\/a> \u2014 each with 1-1\/4″ pitch, 0.750″ roller diameter, and inner link dimensions to ANSI B29.1 \u2014 are required per installation of this American sprocket. Sourcing all three strands from the same supply batch minimises chain length variation between strands, which is the principal factor in achieving equal tension distribution across all three tooth face sets on the American sprocket hub. Our industrial supply network covers ANSI\/ASME, DIN\/ISO, and JIS pitch families for complete system compatibility.<\/p>\n

NMRV Worm Gear Reducers<\/h3>\n

The high torque capacity of the No.100-3 triple-strand American sprocket configuration is most effectively utilised when the input shaft speed is correctly reduced before the chain stage. NMRV worm gear reducers \u2014 right-angle, compact, ratios from 5:1 to 100:1 \u2014 provide the speed reduction input stage that matches motor output speed to the required chain speed at the American sprocket. Standard NMRV output shaft bore dimensions are compatible with the lower-end bore range of Type B units in this series, making the reducer-to-sprocket connection straightforward for most standard applications. For heavy Type C installations, custom output shaft adapters are available.<\/p>\n

\nQ1. What is a triple-strand American sprocket and when should I specify the No.100-3 instead of a single-strand American sprocket for a Colombian industrial conveyor?<\/summary>\n

A triple-strand American sprocket carries three parallel strands of roller chain simultaneously on a single hub, approximately tripling the torque capacity versus a single-strand installation at the same pitch and shaft centre distance. Specify the No.100-3 American sprocket when the torque demand of a Colombian industrial conveyor drive exceeds the capacity of a single-strand or duplex No.100 American sprocket, but upgrading to a heavier pitch chain would require an impractical or uneconomical redesign of the drive housing, shaft spacing, or chain guards. This triple-strand American sprocket allows a major torque capacity step-up by changing only the sprockets and adding two additional chain strands.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ2. How do I get a quote for a custom-bore E100C60 American sprocket for a heavy mining conveyor in Colombia’s Cesar department?<\/summary>\n

Contact us with the part number (E100C60 in this case), required bore diameter, keyway specification, and quantity. For E100C60 the maximum stock bore is 5-5\/8″ \u2014 custom bores slightly larger than this are possible with no keyseat or shallow keyseat. Our engineering team confirms bore feasibility and provides a quotation with ANSI B29.1 dimensional conformity documentation. Custom American sprocket lead times depend on batch size, confirmed at order placement. DIAN customs documentation referencing HS code 8483.40.90 is included in all Colombian export shipments of this American sprocket.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ3. What is the difference between b1, B2, and B3 tooth width dimensions on this American sprocket and which one should I use for housing clearance checks?<\/summary>\n

On the No.100-3 American sprocket: b1 = 0.669″ is the individual single-strand tooth width \u2014 the face dimension each chain inner link plate pair straddles. B2 = 2.077″ covers the first two strand widths and the inter-strand gap \u2014 use this to verify the second strand chain alignment. B3 = 3.485″ is the full triplex hub width from the outer face of strand 1 to the outer face of strand 3 \u2014 this is the dimension you check against housing clearance, shaft shoulder position, and bearing setback in your drive layout drawing. When ordering a replacement American sprocket, confirm all three values match your machine drawing or the original ANSI B29.1 table.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ4. What is the best steel for sprockets in this No.100-3 American sprocket application on a heavy aggregate conveyor in Colombia?<\/summary>\n

For a No.100-3 American sprocket on a heavy aggregate conveyor, C45 medium-carbon steel with induction-hardened tooth flanks is the standard and proven answer. The three-strand combined bending moment on the hub requires C45’s core toughness, and the high contact stress from three sets of chain rollers engaging simultaneously requires the 50\u201358 HRC surface hardness that induction treatment provides. For extreme shock-load conditions \u2014 surge loading from rock or material pile-ups \u2014 alloy steel such as 4140 with controlled core hardness can be specified on a custom basis. Plain unhardened carbon steel American sprockets are not recommended for this application duty cycle.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ5. Where can I find a reliable American sprocket supplier that ships No.100-3 units to Colombia with ANSI documentation and DIAN customs paperwork?<\/summary>\n

We are an experienced American sprocket manufacturer that exports No.100-3 units to Colombia regularly, including DIAN customs documentation (HS 8483.40.90), ANSI B29.1 dimensional conformity records, material certificates, and commercial invoices. For mining sector buyers in Colombia who need ANM equipment records or ANLA environmental documentation support, we assist with the relevant export paperwork alongside the American sprocket shipment. Contact us for lead-time and specification confirmation.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ6. How do I calculate the drive ratio and chain speed for a No.100-3 American sprocket pair on a sugar cane conveyor in Colombia?<\/summary>\n

Drive ratio = driven tooth count \/ drive tooth count. For E100B17 (Z=17) drive and E100C45 (Z=45) driven American sprocket the ratio is 2.65:1. Chain speed (ft\/min) = (Pitch in inches \u00d7 Teeth \u00d7 RPM) \/ 12. At Z=17, 1-1\/4″ pitch, 750 RPM: (1.25 \u00d7 17 \u00d7 750) \/ 12 = 1,328 ft\/min \u2014 within standard lubrication range for No.100 chain on this American sprocket. Note that the triple-strand American sprocket changes torque capacity, not speed ratio \u2014 the ratio calculation is the same as for a single-strand American sprocket of the same tooth count.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\nQ7. Why does the No.100-3 American sprocket only come in Type B and Type C hub configurations, with no Type A available?<\/summary>\n

Type A is a simple plate hub designed for single-strand American sprocket applications at modest torque levels. The No.100-3 generates hub bending moments approximately three times those of a single-strand No.100 American sprocket at the same chain tension \u2014 and the combined bending moment from three strands at 1-1\/4″ pitch is substantial. Type A’s simple plate cross-section lacks the hub engagement depth and boss wall thickness to carry this combined bending load without hub face distortion or key\/setscrew failure. ANSI B29.1 specifies Type B and Type C hub geometry for triple-strand American sprocket units precisely because the structural requirements exceed Type A’s capacity.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u0627\u06cc\u0688\u06cc\u0679\u0631: PXY<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The “-3” suffix in the No.100-3 designation follows the ANSI convention for multi-strand roller chain sprockets, where the number after the hyphen indicates the strand count: No.100-1 is single-strand, No.100-2 is duplex, and No.100-3 \u2014 this product \u2014 is triplex. A triplex configuration carries three parallel strands of #100 chain side by side, engaging all three simultaneously as the hub rotates. The torque capacity of the drive scales approximately with strand count: a No.100-3 installation transmits roughly three times the torque of a single-strand No.100 drive using identical chain, identical pitch, and the same shaft centre distance.<\/p>\n

Hub types are limited to Type B and Type C for the No.100-3. No Type A (simple through-bore) is offered in the triplex format because the hub bending moment from three strands of #100 chain tension is too high for a simple plate hub. Type B in this triplex American sprocket provides a flanged hub boss with defined Dm (hub outer diameter) and A (hub width) values; Type C extends the hub geometry further for higher bore capacity and greater shaft engagement length. This structural requirement is not unique to this product \u2014 it is a consistent design principle across all heavy ANSI triplex families: when strand count and chain load multiply, hub engagement depth must scale accordingly.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":271,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[19],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-270","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-american-standard-sprockets","first","instock","shipping-taxable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/270","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/271"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=270"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=270"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=270"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kettenrad-zahnrader.com\/ur\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=270"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
