Sprockets for Metric Roller Chain
Designed to meet ISO 606 and DIN 8187 international dimensional standards, these sprockets are for use with compatible ISO and DIN roller chain. They come machined to the shaft diameter size listed and are machinable up to the maximum shaft diameter size.

MXL Series Corrosion-Resistant Timing Belt Pulleys
Anodized aluminum has good corrosion resistance. Pulleys are MXL series (miniature extra light) and have trapezoidal teeth. The teeth match up with the grooves along the inside diameter of a timing belt in order to move components forward or backward. Select a pulley with a maximum belt width that’s the same or larger than your timing belt width.

Metal Gears and Gear Racks—20° Pressure Angle
The current industry standard, these 20° pressure angle gears have thicker, stronger teeth than 14½° pressure angle gears. Compared to plastic gears and racks, they’re better for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications. Also known as spur gears.
Combine gears with different numbers of teeth to change speed and torque in your assembly. Combine a gear and rack to convert rotary motion into linear motion. To minimize your footprint, mount one or more standard gears inside of an internal gear.
For components to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle and pitch/module.
Brass gears and racks are easy to machine, so you can add your own mounting holes and make other alterations. They won't rust when exposed to water.
Carbon steel components have hard, strong, and wear-resistant teeth, although they will rust when exposed to moisture and corrosive chemicals. They're best for high-torque machines, like lifting equipment, and heavy duty applications, such as rock crushing. Gears with teeth that are not hardened can be hardened to fit your application.
Stainless steel gears and racks resist rust in damp and wet environments, so they're commonly used in food-processing plants and other areas with frequent cleaning.

Metal Worms and Worm Gears
Worm gears use screw threads to make large reductions to shaft speed while transmitting motion at a right angle. They transmit motion from worm to gear and cannot be reversed. For gears and worms to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle and pitch/module. These worms are compatible with plastic worm gears.
Speed ratio is the ratio by which output shaft speed is reduced. As speed decreases, torque increases.
Bronze gears have low friction and dissipate heat better than cast iron gears to provide a long service life for both the gear and the worm. They’re also more corrosion resistant than cast iron gears.

Plastic Gears and Gear Racks—20° Pressure Angle
The current industry standard, these 20° pressure angle gears have thicker, stronger teeth than 14½° pressure angle gears. Made of plastic, they run quieter than metal gears and have good corrosion and chemical resistance. They’re also known as spur gears.
Combine gears with different numbers of teeth to change speed and torque in your assembly. Combine a gear and rack to convert rotary motion into linear motion.
For components to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle and pitch/module.
Acetal gears are best suited for use in light duty machines or for prototyping.
Nylon gears can be operated without lubrication, so they’re commonly used in food-processing machines.
