Spur gear module 1.5 z=72 plate wheel

Product Description

Spur gear module 1.5, z=72, plate wheel

The module 1.5 gear shown, 72 teeth, plate wheel, is a basic element of module drives - it works 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 components used in Polish industry.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How can you recognise a manufacturing defect in a gear when receiving the goods?

It is worth checking the radial runout (the gear should not "wobble" on the shaft), the uniformity of the pitch between teeth and the smoothness of the tooth surface - visible burrs, dents or uneven pitch are a signal to file a complaint.

What should I do if I need a non-standard module that is not currently in the standard range?

If time is short and you need a specific size, we offer professional 3D printing from modern glass-fibre-reinforced materials. It is an outstanding, durable solution for an urgently needed spare part, for prototyping or for gears with lower loads, allowing you to restore continuity of operation very quickly.

What does it mean when the gear "skips" teeth under load?

Most often it is a sign that the transmitted torque exceeds the tooth strength for the given module, or that the backlash is too large - in both cases continued operation leads to the teeth breaking off quickly.

Why is the pilot bore in a module gear often smaller than required?

A "rough" bore allows you to bore it out yourself to the exact, non-standard size of the customer's shaft - a ready-made large bore from stock would rarely match the required size perfectly.

Where is this product used?

It performs well in power transmission systems in machine tools, production lines and sliding gates, where it works together with a gear rack of the same module.

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.
