By choosing us as your BlackStar Power Transmission distributor & supplier, you gain a partner committed to reducing downtime, improving efficiency, and delivering cost-effective solutions tailored to your needs.

At Dixie Industrial Sales, we provide the full suite of BlackStar Power Transmission components engineered for rugged, industrial performance. These products are built for demanding environments, designed to reduce maintenance, improve reliability, and deliver long service life. 

Below are the key product families, each with detailed types and features, so you can see exactly what you get when you rely on BlackStar through us.

BlackStar sprockets are precision-manufactured using materials like SAE 1045 steel, forged or one-piece construction, and machined teeth to ensure accurate pitch and reduced wear. Dixie Industrial Sales offers:

• Roller chain sprockets — solid steel, machine-cut teeth, built for strength under heavy loads. 
• Conveyor chain sprockets — induction-hardened surface, engineered for quieter operation and longer wear. 
• Agricultural chain sprockets — fully machined for consistency in pitch, improved durability compared to cast or flame-cut options. 
• Pintle chain sprockets — optimized for smoother operation and precision where variability is unacceptable. 

Bushings from BlackStar offer secure connections that outperform traditional keyways and set screws. Available in multiple styles to match application needs:

• Split Taper bushings — machined steel, ideal for high torque, repeat installations, and precise alignment.
• Taper Lock bushings — cast iron (Grade 35), strong and reliable for heavy duty setups.
• QD Style bushings — quick-disconnect style for fast installation or frequent maintenance.
• XT Style bushings — additional strength variants for more extreme load or environmental conditions. 

Sheaves are an essential component in belt-driven systems. BlackStar designs theirs with durability and precision in mind:

• Constructed from Grade 35 cast iron for strength and resistance to wear. 
• Phosphated, coated, or painted finishes to resist corrosion. 
• Dynamically balanced to protect bearings and ensure smoother rotation under load. 

Besides sprockets, bushings, and sheaves, the BlackStar catalog includes:

• Couplings — for joining shafts, managing misalignment, and absorbing shock loads. 
• Gears — precision cut, durable materials, used where direct gear-driven power transmission is required. 
• Timing Pulleys — for synchronous belt applications where precise timing and minimal slippage are critical. 
• Accessories — including hubs, set collars (split, solid, double split styles), chain tensioners & idlers. These support maintenance, alignment, and performance for full system reliability.
