This type of sprocket is used in applications where the drive chain may experience slack due to long lengths, non-adjustability of the driven shaft or where the chain has to be guided around an obstruction. Use of idler sprockets prevents chain whipping and uneven distribution of load. This type of sprocket can also be used in applications where the drive chain may experience direction reversal or in applications where the chain may experience whipping. Having idler sprockets touching the outside of the chain would be beneficial.
