{"product_id":"liftmaster-15-48b18lge","title":"LiftMaster 15-48B18LGE Drive Sprocket — #48, 18 Teeth, 1-Inch Bore","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe LiftMaster 15-48B18LGE is a 18-tooth sprocket specified for #48 chain with a 1 inch bore. It belongs in the exact drive arrangement identified by the equipment documentation. Match the chain, shaft interface and drive ratio together rather than treating an approximately similar sprocket as an interchangeable replacement. Select the replacement by the complete part number and the installed equipment configuration. A similar photograph or a shared LiftMaster brand name does not establish interchangeability. Confirm the applicable service drawing before ordering so the repair addresses the correct component and its related mounting, connection and operating requirements.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility — Models, Versions and Exclusions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel or selection point\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompatibility requirement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpecified operator drive\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatch the exact part number and installed drive position.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#48 chain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChain size is necessary but does not establish shaft or hub fit.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDifferent tooth counts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChanging the drive relationship requires approved application information.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOther bore sizes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot interchangeable merely because the teeth engage the same chain.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentify the Assembly and Plan the Repair\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIdentify the sprocket position in the exploded drive drawing. The same operator can contain output, reduction and travel-limit sprockets with different functions. Record the existing part reference, shaft engagement and chain alignment before ordering.

Have the technician assess chain wear and tooth damage together. A new sprocket cannot restore a damaged shaft or elongated chain, and excessive chain tension is not a repair for incorrect alignment or mismatched components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare the replacement with the installed service arrangement before dismantling the equipment. Photograph the part’s location and record the complete model and visible service numbers. Inspect the surrounding attachment points and mating components for wear, impact damage or misalignment. Replacing one worn item will not correct a damaged support or another component that continues to impose abnormal loads on the repaired assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan the repair around the manufacturer’s instructions for the actual equipment revision. Confirm access, safe support and any separate hardware before removing the old part. After installation, restore the intended retention, alignment and guarding, then test the equipment under controlled conditions. The repair is complete only when the original fault has been addressed and the system’s required operating and protection functions have been checked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications and Product Identification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrdering reference\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15-48B18LGE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChain size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#48\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTeeth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKeyway\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/4 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSelection basis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDocumented commercial-operator shaft arrangements\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBefore Ordering\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfirm the full chain and tooth specification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify bore, keyway, hub and retention.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdentify the correct drive position and approved ratio.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect mating chain, shaft and guards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents and Separate Requirements\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis offer identifies the sprocket.
