Double Simplex Sprockets – 1" Pitch Roller Chain Sprockets

Double simplex sprockets are a class of high quality that allows efficient and reliable power transmission in roller chain drive systems. BEPL Ltd deals in high-quality 1 inch sprockets for industrial roller chains, which provide added strength, accuracy and longevity.

Our double sprockets use high-grade steel to ensure smooth engagement with compatible chains for consistent torque transfer and lower wear rates.

What Is a Double Simplex Sprocket?

A double simplex sprocket features two rows of teeth designed to work with dual chain runs or to support higher load capacities in chain drive systems.
These sprockets are commonly used when:

  • Greater torque transmission is required
  • Parallel chains operate on the same shaft
  • Additional chain stability is needed

The 1" pitch refers to the distance between the centers of adjacent chain pins, ensuring compatibility with matching roller chains.
