Material and Manufacturing Process of Chain Wheel
Material: High quality carbon steel (such as 45 # steel) is the mainstream material for manufacturing sprockets, and after quenching and tempering treatment, its hardness can reach HRC28-32. Stainless steel sprockets are suitable for anti-corrosion scenarios such as food machinery, while powder metallurgy processes are suitable for mass production of small sprockets.
Structure and classification of sprockets
Structure: A sprocket is usually composed of a ring gear, hub, and spoke plate. Depending on the application requirements, the sprocket can be a solid or spoke gear.

Failure modes and maintenance of gears
Tooth surface pitting: Long term alternating stress leads to fatigue peeling of the tooth surface.
Tooth surface wear: Poor lubrication or foreign object intrusion can cause tooth surface wear.
