Snap Ring Grooves
Sprocket Plating/Coating
U.S. Tsubaki offers the option of implementing snap ring grooves on all stock “B” and “C” style sprockets. The snap ring and groove can be used in conjunction to position the sprocket or to limit movement along the shaft. Please reference Figure 7 for a depiction of snap ring grooves installed on a “B” style sprocket.
U.S. Tsubaki offers special plating/coating options on all stock sprockets. Plating options include: Zinc, Electroless Nickel, Cadmium, and other common industry coatings to increase corrosion resistance. Please reference Figure 10 for a depiction of a cadmium plated sprocket.

“ B ” style sprocket
(stripped sprockets) All U.S. Tsubaki stock carbon steel sprockets are black oxide coated for corrosion resistance from the factory. Select end-users may opt to paint or anodize the sprocket themselves. U.S. Tsubaki does offer the option to have the black oxide coating removed per customer request.
U.S. Tsubaki offers the option to implement slots into the sprocket plate. Similar to lightening holes, slotted plates reduce weight or may be used along with mounting bolts to adjust the sprocket timing. Please reference Figure 8 for a depiction of a slotted “B” style sprocket.
Segmental Rim Sprockets
Split Sprockets
Segmental Rim Sprockets are designed to save time and money. They eliminate costly downtime during installation and adjustment. The segmental rim is bolted to a solid or split body. That means bodies or entire sprockets may be replaced without removing shaft or bearings, saving maintenance time and money. Please refer to Figure 11 for an illustration.

Steel split sprockets offer ease of installation and removal for applications that require the sprocket be changed frequently or quickly. U.S. Tsubaki offers the option of cutting and providing the steel split hub as an assembly or package to suit your needs. Please reference Figure 9 for a depiction of a steel split sprocket assembly.
