Spur gear module 1.5 z=43 with hub

Product Description

Spur gear module 1.5, z=43, with hub

The spur gear module 1.5 shown, 43 teeth, with hub, is a basic component of module drives - it meshes with any other gear or gear rack (toothed rack) of the same module and pressure angle 20°. The base material is C45E structural steel (EN 10083-1) - a proven choice for gear transmission parts operating in European industry.

Frequently asked questions

What is the module of a gear and how do you measure it correctly?

The module (m) is the basic parameter defining tooth size, i.e. the ratio of the pitch diameter to the number of teeth. The simplest way to measure it in workshop conditions is to measure the outside diameter of the gear (Dz), count the teeth (Z) and use the formula: m = Dz / (Z + 2).

How should gears be stored correctly before installation?

Preferably in a dry room, protected against moisture and dust, with a light layer of preservative oil on the teeth and bore - especially important for C45E carbon steel, which can start to corrode without protection.

How do you calculate the outside diameter from the number of teeth and the module?

It is very simple maths, often used by maintenance departments. The formula is: Dz = m * (Z + 2). For example, for a gear with module 3 and 20 teeth, the outside diameter will be: 3 * (20 + 2) = 66 mm.

How do you set the correct centre distance between two module gears?

The centre distance is the sum of the pitch diameters of both gears divided by two (a = (Dp1+Dp2)/2); too small a distance causes seizing, and too large a distance - excessive backlash and loss of quiet running.

Where is this product used?

Used in industrial machine drives, gate and industrial door automation and as a spare part for existing module gear drives - you only need to keep the same module and pressure angle.

When placing your order, please check the current stock level of this gear - the lead time depends on it and is clearly stated according to the quantity available in the given warehouse.
