Double Simplex Sprockets – 5/8" Roller Chain Sprockets for Heavy-Duty Drives

Find durable double simplex sprockets designed for dependable, high-load power transfer. At Bolton Engineering Products Ltd (BEP Ltd) we provide superior quality roller chain sprockets to suit 5/8″ pitch chains – creating reliable torque transfer, durability and accuracy of the engaged chain.

Whether replacing a worn sprocket or upgrading to a stronger, more stable double-row chain drive design for superior durability in high-torque applications.

What Is a Double Simplex Sprocket?

Double simplex sprockets provide two rows of teeth for use with a double simplex roller chain.

The configuration according to the invention provides, as compared with a single-row simplex sprocket:

  • Increased load-carrying capacity
  • Improved power distribution
  • Reduced wear on chain and sprocket
  • Greater operational stability
  • They are ideal where higher torque or continuous-duty operation is required.

Why Choose 5/8" Double Simplex Roller Chain Sprockets?

Key Features & Benefits

  • Designed for 5/8" pitch roller chains
  • Precision-machined tooth profiles for smooth engagement
  • Manufactured from high-quality steel
  • Available with protective finishes such as black oxide or zinc plating
  • Suitable for high-load and high-torque applications
  • Long service life with reduced maintenance

These sprockets are engineered to meet demanding industrial standards while maintaining consistent performance.

Applications of Double Simplex Sprockets

Our roller chain sprockets are widely used in industries where reliability and strength are critical, including:

  • Industrial machinery
  • Conveyor systems
  • Agricultural equipment
  • Construction machinery
  • Packaging and processing equipment
  • Power transmission systems
  • Manufacturing plants

Their dual-row design makes them ideal for machines operating under sustained or heavy loads.

Material & Finish Options

All double simplex sprockets are made of high-grade steel and can be provided with surface treatments which improve their performance:

  • Black oxide finish – corrosion resistance and higher wear
  • Zinc plating- for protection in just damp or slightly corrosive environment

These deburring finishes contribute to increased sprocket life and consistent chain operation.
