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.
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.
Cast iron gears are strong and durable.
