Hello, how can I select the suitable sprocket. I'm using ANSI Roller Chain, no.50-2, pitch 15.875mm, pin length 39.85mm and transverse pitch 18.10mm. Thanks.
 
Zedman,

You say you are using ANSI RC50 double strand chain but you give metric dimensions. The metric equivilant for RC50 is ISO 10 chain. If it's ANSI, the only sprocket you can use is an RC50-2 sprocket having a 5/8" pitch. If it's ISO, use the double sprocket for that with the 15.875mm pitch.
