Spur gear module 1.5 z=59 with hub

Product Description

Spur gear module 1.5, z=59, with hub

The spur gear module 1.5 with z=59 teeth (with hub) is a universal modular component whose parameters match the entire family of gears and gear racks of the same module. The base material is C45E structural steel (EN 10083-1) - a proven choice for gear transmission parts operating in European industry.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Can a module gear be painted or lacquered?

Yes, the external surfaces (sides, circumference) can be protected with lacquer, but the teeth and the mounting bore should remain clean, because the coating would change their actual dimensions and disrupt meshing with the other gear.

How does the operating temperature affect the choice of material for a module gear?

At high temperatures, C45E steel retains its properties much better than plastics, which can soften and lose tooth profile accuracy; in such cases steel (including stainless steel if moisture or steam is also present) is the safer choice.

Do straight-tooth module gears have a specific mounting direction?

No, a straight-tooth gear is symmetrical and can be mounted either way round; direction only matters with helical teeth, where the helix angle must match the mating gear.

How can you check whether two module gears will mesh with each other?

There is one absolute condition: both gears must have exactly the same module (e.g. m=2) and the same pressure angle (standard 20°). If the modules differ by even a fraction of a millimetre, the teeth will start to shear and the gearbox will be destroyed.

Where is this product used?

Typical applications include conveyor drives, packaging machines, industrial automation and positioning systems using a gear and gear rack pair.
