Description
When your baler’s chain drive starts acting up—slipping, jumping, or making noise—it’s often this little sprocket that’s the culprit. The drive sprocket is what keeps the #80 chain moving smoothly through your baler system, and when it gets worn down, the whole operation suffers. This double sprocket replacement gets you back to making tight, consistent bales without missing a beat.
Key Features
- 13-tooth double sprocket design handles heavy loads without slipping or breaking
- 1-1/4 inch hex bore fits securely on your baler’s drive shaft
- Built for #80 chain systems that run day in and day out during haying season
- Upper idler configuration keeps proper chain tension for smooth operation
- AgSmart quality construction means it’ll last through multiple seasons
Built for Real Farm Work
This sprocket is designed specifically for John Deere 468 and 568 round balers—machines that see some of the hardest use on the farm. Whether you’re putting up first cutting timothy or baling straw after harvest, these balers need every component working right to keep up with your schedule. The double sprocket design distributes the load better than single sprockets, which is why John Deere designed it this way from the factory.
Made to Last
Baler sprockets take a real beating from dust, debris, and the constant stress of moving heavy chains under load. This replacement is built to handle all that punishment with hardened teeth that resist wear and a solid construction that won’t crack or break under pressure. The hex bore design ensures it stays put on the shaft, even when things get rough.
Installation Notes
This is a direct replacement for the original factory part—no modifications needed. Just make sure you’ve got the right tools to handle the hex bore, and don’t forget to check your chain tension after installation. A good tip is to clean out any debris from the drive area while you’ve got everything apart.
