View More >>Huzhou Nanxun Jingtong Auto Parts Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a China-based manufacturer of automotive engine timing chain system components. We produce Car Engine Volkswagen timing sprocket Suppliers range parts for workshops, distributors and engine rebuilders worldwide.
Our Volkswagen timing sprocket range covers 22 active part numbers for petrol and diesel engines used across the VW group. Each sprocket is machined from high-carbon chromium alloy steel and heat treated to hold tooth geometry under chain load. We supply sprockets as individual components or as part of a matched timing chain kit.
The range is built around OEM replacement fit: bore, keyway and tooth count match the original shaft interface so the sprocket seats without modification. Typical applications include camshaft and crankshaft sprockets on 1.4 TSI, 1.8 TSI, 2.0 TSI and 2.0 TDI engine families.
| Part Number | Position | Teeth | Engine Family | Material |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1101 | Camshaft | 18 | 1.4 TSI / 1.6 | Alloy steel |
| 1102 | Crankshaft | 20 | 2.0 TDI | Alloy steel |
| 1103 | Camshaft | 18 | 1.8 TSI | Alloy steel |
| 1104 | Crankshaft | 22 | 2.0 TSI | Alloy steel |
| 1105–1113 | Cam / Crank | 18–22 | EA111 / EA888 / EA189 | Alloy steel |
Volkswagen timing sprockets are used where the chain drives the camshaft from the crankshaft. The sprocket must maintain exact phase between the two shafts for valve timing to stay correct. Our sprockets are specified for engines that use a chain drive rather than a belt, including common rail diesel and direct injection petrol units.
We machine Volkswagen timing sprockets from alloy steel with high carbon and chromium content. The material grade and heat treatment are selected so the tooth flanks resist peening and the bore holds its interference fit over the service life of the chain.
Pitch accuracy matched to the chain pitch so rollers seat fully without climbing.
Machined to the specified tolerance class; keyway centred relative to tooth position.
Controlled within a defined Rockwell range to balance wear resistance and toughness.
Total indicated runout checked on V-blocks to keep chain tension stable.
Every production batch passes inspection after each machining process. Finished sprockets receive 100% inspection against the customer's requirements and the applicable standard. Our testing lab uses spectrometer, metallographic microscope, hardness tester, CMM and video measurement equipment to verify chemical composition, microstructure, hardness and dimensions.
We manufacture in accordance with GB/T14212-2003 and JB/T10348-200 standards. For project orders, we can supply inspection records covering tooth profile, bore diameter, keyway position, runout and surface hardness. A fitment test with a known-good chain is part of our pre-shipment check.
We support customized Volkswagen timing sprockets produced to drawings or samples. Customization covers tooth count, bore diameter, keyway dimensions, hub profile and material specification. We also produce sprockets as part of a matched timing chain kit when the project requires chain, tensioner and guide to be supplied together.
Volkswagen timing sprockets are part of our wider engine timing range. We also manufacture the chain, tensioner and guide that work with these sprockets, which allows a complete timing system to be sourced from one factory.
To prepare a Volkswagen timing sprocket quotation and configuration, we need the following project data. This allows us to confirm the correct part number, material and inspection scope before production.
| Input | What We Need | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Engine code | e.g. CAVD, CCTA, CBFA, CJAA | Confirms tooth count and bore size |
| Position | Camshaft, crankshaft or intermediate | Determines hub and keyway geometry |
| Quantity | Annual or per-order volume | Sets production batch and packaging |
| Drawing or sample | 2D/3D drawing or physical sample | Required for custom sprockets |
| Inspection scope | Hardness, runout, keyway, fitment | Defines acceptance records |
| Packaging | Bulk, branded or kit | Matches distribution channel |
Volkswagen timing sprockets are installed with the timing chain and tensioner as a system. Correct installation requires the sprocket to be seated fully on the shaft, the keyway aligned and the chain tension set to the engine specification. We recommend replacing the sprocket whenever the chain is replaced, because a worn sprocket changes the effective pitch and shortens the life of the new chain.
For maintenance planning, inspect tooth flanks for peening or pitting and check the bore for play. When tooth wear reaches 10% of tooth thickness, the sprocket should be replaced. We supply individual sprockets and complete kits so that a timing system refresh can be carried out in one operation.
Which Volkswagen engines do your timing sprockets cover?
Our range covers 22 part numbers for VW group petrol and diesel engines, including 1.2 TSI, 1.4 TSI, 1.8 TSI, 2.0 TSI, 1.6 TDI and 2.0 TDI families. We confirm the exact part number from the engine code and position.
Can you produce a custom Volkswagen timing sprocket from a sample?
Yes. We develop and produce sprockets according to customer drawings or samples. Customization covers tooth count, bore, keyway, hub profile and material specification.
What material and standard do you use?
We use alloy steel with high carbon and chromium content, manufactured in accordance with GB/T14212-2003 and JB/T10348-200 standards. Each batch is inspected for chemical composition, hardness and dimensions.
Do you supply the complete timing chain kit with the sprocket?
Yes. We manufacture chain, tensioner, guide and sprocket, so a complete Volkswagen timing chain kit can be supplied from one factory. This is useful when the project requires a matched set.
What is your production capacity and lead time?
Our annual production capacity is over 5,000,000 single parts. Lead time depends on the part number, quantity and customization scope; we confirm it in the quotation.
How do you handle quality claims?
We inspect after every process and perform 100% inspection on finished sprockets. If a quality issue occurs, our after-sales team works with the customer to identify the cause and resolve it promptly.
