Tsubaki SMART TOOTH® sprockets offer users the ability to identify and schedule drive system maintenance before critical component failure occurs. Strategic placement of our patented Wear Indicator pins on one or more sprocket teeth provides visual indication that a sprocket is still within the allowable wear tolerance, or that it needs to be replaced. When factoring in the cost of critical drive system components, implementation of Tsubaki Wear Indicator Technology makes sense for applications that are driven by capital equipment, or where non-scheduled downtime is simply not acceptable. Available on both roller chain and engineering class chain sprockets.

Why choose Tsubaki SMART TOOTH sprockets?

Choosing the right sprocket goes a long way in maximizing the life of your chain and operations. Keep your operations ahead of costly downtime with Tsubaki SMART TOOTH® sprockets. These sprockets make it easier to proactively identify and schedule drive system maintenance before critical component failure occurs. Over time in service, the sprocket tooth profile area is reduced due to induced load created by the chain roller.
