B&B Manufacturing expands sprocket offering
B&B Manufacturing expanded its ACHE sprocket offering to include larger tooth counts and designed benefits of less weight around the shaft and reduced bearing and overhung loads.
Taper-Lock ACHE sprockets have a longer bore length in order to withstand high torque. They are designed with extra mass around the shaft so that the sprockets remain stable. However, B&B's ACHE offering is mainly QD bushed. The QD design transmits the required torque without unnecessary, additional weight around the shaft. This provides the benefits of reduced bearing and overhung loads.
