    Metal Spur Gears

    Our strongest spur gears for transferring motion. They’re better than plastic gears for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications. 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.
    Combine gears with different numbers of teeth to change speed and torque in your assembly. For components to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle and pitch/module.

    Also known as spiral miter gears, these gears have curved teeth that stay in contact longer than straight teeth so they handle heavier loads at higher speeds. They run quieter than standard miter gears because the teeth gradually engage. Use them to transmit motion at a right angle while maintaining shaft speed and torque. Gears are carbon steel for strength. Teeth are hardened for wear resistance.
    Gears must be identical in order to mesh correctly; they're sold as a pair.

    For 90° Shaft Angle

    With straight, conically shaped teeth and a 1:1 speed ratio, miter gears connect two shafts at an angle without changing shaft speed or torque. They're more efficient than spiral miter gears because they create less friction.
    For two gears to mesh correctly, they must have the same pressure angle, shaft angle, pitch/module, and number of teeth.
    1144 Carbon Steel—Carbon steel gears have hard, strong, and wear-resistant teeth. They’re best for heavy duty and high-torque applications, such as lifting equipment. However, these gears will rust when exposed to moisture or corrosive chemicals. Some gears have hardened teeth for additional wear resistance; gears with teeth that are not hardened can be hardened to fit your application.
