Spur gear module 1 z=12 with hub hardened D=6

Product Description

Spur gear module 1, z=12, with hub, hardened

The spur gear module 1 shown, 12 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 teeth are induction hardened to 45-55 HRC, which significantly increases wear resistance and extends gear service life in heavily loaded transmissions.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

How does the build quality of a Polish/European manufacturer reduce rolling resistance in the gearbox?

Cheap gears from unverified sources often have a rough tooth surface that acts like sandpaper, raising the temperature and the drive resistance. Our gears have a smooth working surface, which helps maintain the lubricating film and minimises energy losses.

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 do you choose a gear rack to match a specific module gear?

The principle is the same as when selecting two gears - the rack must have the same module as the drive gear. Remember to choose the right rack width, which should be equal to or slightly wider than the face width of the gear, in order to transmit the full torque.

What lubrication is optimal for open module (rack) gear drives?

For open systems (gear + gear rack), it is best to use thick greases with added graphite or copper, which adhere firmly to the teeth and are not flung off by centrifugal force. In very dusty applications, dry Teflon lubricants perform better.

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.
