160 Chain A Plate Sprocket – Size Chart

When a drive system is running #160 roller chain, everything is oversized for a reason. These sprockets are built for heavy-duty equipment where torque, chain engagement, and strength matter. A 160 Chain A Plate Sprocket gives maintenance teams, fabricators, and OEMs a large, flat sprocket option for custom mounting and demanding industrial applications.

160A plate sprockets are flat, hubless sprockets designed for use with #160 roller chain. A Type A sprocket does not have a hub, keyway, or set screws, making it useful for weldments, compact assemblies, fabricated equipment, custom drive layouts, and applications where the sprocket needs to be mounted or modified separately.

#160 roller chain has a 2.000″ pitch, also commonly written as 2″ pitch. When selecting a 160A plate sprocket, the most important details are chain size, tooth count, outside diameter, bore size, and how the sprocket will be mounted in the application.

What Is an A Plate Sprocket?

A Type A plate sprocket is a flat sprocket without a hub. Because there is no hub, A plate sprockets are useful where space is limited, where the sprocket needs to be mounted to another component, or where the bore needs to be machined for a custom setup.

For #160 chain, the sprocket pitch matches the chain pitch of 2.000″, or 2″. The tooth count changes the sprocket diameter, speed ratio, and chain wrap, which is why choosing the correct size matters.

Common Applications for 160A Plate Sprockets

160 Chain A Plate Sprockets are commonly used in heavy-duty conveyors, agricultural equipment, material handling systems, industrial machinery, fabricated drive systems, and OEM equipment. These sprockets are a strong choice when a large plate-style sprocket is needed and the mounting method is handled separately from the sprocket itself.

They are also helpful for machine shops, maintenance departments, and fabricators that need a plain bore sprocket to modify for a specific shaft, weldment, fixture, or custom drive layout.
