    Plastic Spur Gears

    Made of plastic, these spur gears run more quietly than metal gears and have good corrosion and chemical resistance. However, they’re not as strong as metal gears, so they’re best for light duty applications. Combine a gear and rack to convert rotary motion into linear motion.
    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.

    14 1/2° Pressure

    Angle, Round Bore

    14 1/2° Pressure Angle—A former industry standard, 14½° pressure angle gears are often found in older machinery.
    Nylon—Nylon gears are wear resistant, but will swell and weaken over time when wet.
