Roller Chain Pilot Bore Sprockets – 2" Pitch

High-quality pilot bore sprockets are essential for reliable chain drive systems. At BEP Ltd, we supply precision-engineered stock bore sprockets and B hub sprockets designed for 2" pitch roller chain applications.

Also known as rough stock bore sprockets, these components are supplied with an oversized or unfinished bore, allowing customers to machine them to suit specific shaft sizes and keyway requirements.

What Are Pilot Bore Sprockets?

A pilot bore sprocket is a sprocket supplied with a partially finished or undersized bore. This allows engineers or machinists to customize:

• Final bore diameter
• Keyway size
• Grub screw position
• Shaft fit tolerance

This flexibility makes stock bore sprockets ideal for bespoke machinery builds and replacement applications.

What Is a B Hub Sprocket?

A B hub sprocket includes a hub projection on one side of the plate. This design:

• Provides additional material for machining
• Improves shaft support
• Allows for easier custom boring and keyway cutting
• Enhances structural strength under load

B hub sprockets are commonly selected for heavy-duty or high-torque chain drive systems.

Benefits of Stock Bore Sprockets

Pilot bore sprockets are particularly useful where standard finished bore sizes are not suitable.
