Steel Single Sprocket Roller
The Steel Single Sprocket Roller is a drive roller with a single sprocket mounted on a steel or stainless steel tube, designed for use in powered conveyor systems. It features a 08B or 10A bearing house and is available in multiple diameters and shaft sizes to match common tube dimensions. The roller is supplied with a galvanized, chrome plated, or PU/rubber coated surface treatment for wear resistance and grip. It is used in belt, roller and slat conveyors where a single sprocket drives the roller via a chain or timing belt.

Part of the Roller range, used in Warehouse and Distribution Centres.
Key Benefits
- Single sprocket design allows chain or belt drive from one side of the conveyor
- Available in multiple tube diameters and shaft sizes to match existing conveyor frames
- Steel or SUS304 tube material for strength and corrosion resistance
- Surface treatments including galvanized, chrome plated, or PU/rubber coating for durability and grip
- Bearing house type 08B or 10A matches standard roller bearing sizes for easy replacement
Application Scenarios
- Powered belt conveyors where a single sprocket drives the roller via a chain or timing belt
- Roller conveyors in warehouse automation where chain-driven rollers move product along a line
- Assembly lines using slat or roller conveyors with a single drive point per section
- Conveyor sections requiring a drive roller with a specific shaft size and tube diameter
- Systems where surface coating improves grip on belts or prevents slippage on rollers
Who It Is For
