Summary

Background

A sprocket is a categorical type of wheel with multiple teeth/slots that can mesh with a chain and get attached with it. 'Sprocket', namely refers to a wheel of any type over which radially directed projections for engagement is made and a chain is passed over it. It is differentiated from a gear by the fact that it can never be meshed together directly and differs from a pulley as a sprocket has teeth. Sprocket wheels and chain are typically used for transmission of power from one shaft to another from where a restriction of slippage is present. Sprockets are designed to bear heavy torque and resistance to fatigue load
