Power Transmission

Power transmission products transfer motion, torque and load between motors, shafts, pulleys, chains and driven machinery. Use this category to compare drive belts, sprockets, industrial chains, taper lock pulleys, couplings, shaft fixings, backstops and clutches by bore size, belt section, pitch, torque rating, material, duty and series before ordering from BMG. Start with the drive layout: confirm whether the application needs a belt drive, chain drive, shaft connection, torque control or backstop function. Match belt width, datum length, ribs or grooves, sprocket teeth, chain pitch, bush size, hub diameter, PCD, bolt size and shaft or bore diameter to the existing equipment. For couplings, clutches and shaft fixings, check torque capacity, seat dimensions, material code and size against the machine specification. Select by fit, alignment, load, speed and replacement compatibility.
