A former industry standard, 14½° pressure angle gears are often found on older machinery. Made of carbon steel, they have high strength and are better than plastic gears and gear racks for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications.

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.Gears with teeth that are not hardened can be hardened to fit your application. Hardening a gear's teeth increases its wear resistance.
