Module 6 gear racks

Module 6 gear racks are heavy racks with straight teeth, a pitch of 18.85 mm and a 20° pressure angle. They are designed for linear drives with very high feed forces, where smaller modules would not provide sufficient tooth strength.

Module 6 linear rack - a ready-made part instead of one-off manufacturing

A ready-made module 6 rack saves the time and cost of one-off custom manufacturing. Standard C45 or C15 steel racks can be shortened and machined, and the hardened version provides longer tooth life under high contact pressures. You can join further sections to build longer axes.

Module 6 square gear racks, standard and hardened
