Sprockets
Compact drives with
high performance
Falcon Pd® sprockets are designed to be a part of a complete
high performance drive system. Working with our premium
synchronous Falcon Pd® belts allows for a lot of performance
in a small space, giving you flexibility in design and application.
Falcon Pd® belts and sprockets are ideal for use on a wide
variety of applications and industries.
Matching belt to sprocket is simple
The part numbering system for Falcon Pd® sprockets is simple
and easy. Just match the belt’s width and pitch length to that of
the sprocket and select the preferred number of grooves/teeth
to provide the desired performance characteristics. Refer to the
part number example above for a part number breakdown.
Get what you pay for Drive Change
SM
With Falcon Pd® belts and sprockets, you get more of what you
pay for with each energy dollar. This is especially true when
Falcon Pd® is applied to high-energy consuming drives that are
used 24 hours a day, as well as high horsepower drives that
inflate energy consumption during peak periods.
Quieter, more flexible drive system
Falcon Pd® belt and sprocket systems also offer a decrease in
operating noise. Tests show up to 6dB quieter operation than
comparable Poly Chain GT® 2* and Poly Chain GT® Carbon*
belt systems.
Proprietary rubber construction provides better resistance
to flex fatigue and versatility in a wide range of
operating temperatures.
A system that works with less maintenance
Since Falcon Pd® belts are made of our proprietary high-grade
rubber compound, you get a solution that can handle very
demanding synchronous drive systems. Falcon Pd® does not
require lubrication. There is also no need for retensioning after
the initial run in period like V-belts drives. Install a Falcon Pd®
drive system and watch your maintenance costs drop.
Applications
Any applications where a chain drive could be used or there is a
need for a high-efficiency drive system.
For use where Falcon Pd® belts are specified or desired.
System is backside idler compatible allowing for
additional applications.
