Gates SS 8MX-60S-21 2012 is a stainless-steel Poly Chain GT2 sprocket with 60 teeth, 8M pitch, and 21 mm face width. Designed for synchronous drives requiring corrosion resistance in washdown or food-processing environments. The stainless-steel construction provides durability and long service life in demanding applications.

Genuine, strong, durable sprockets designed for use with high power density Gates Poly Chain Carbon Volt, Poly Chain GT2, and Poly Chain GT Carbon belts.

• Smaller, narrower sprockets save shaft space, keep the load closer to bearing and extend life of reducer.
• Poly Chain GT2 Sprockets keep overhung load below manufacturers' recommendation.
• Precisely manufactured and statically balanced to ISO 1940 (1973) to class G16.

THE INDUSTRY'S BEST.

With patented, carbon tensile cord design for high-torque, low-speed drives, Gates engineers were the first in the world to incorporate a high fatigue-resisting carbon fiber tensile cord into the belt, which is made of a new polyurethane compound. Consequently, Poly Chain GT Carbon quickly became the most powerful line of synchronous belts on the market, providing a maintenance-free, energy saving, and environmentally friendly operation, offering an excellent alternative to roller chain and gear drives.

Features and Benefits

• Keep overhung load below manufacturers recommendation.
• Full split in bushing allows for easy installation and removal.
• Precise sprocket design produces positive, press fit to shaft.
• Re-work services have turnaround time.
• Warning: Do NOT use these sprockets with rim speeds in excess of 6,500 fpm.
