Spur gear module 3 z=43 with hub

Product Description

Spur gear module 3, z=43, with hub

The spur gear module 3 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°. Made of C45E steel (UNI/EN 10083-1), which ensures high mechanical strength and wear resistance during prolonged operation under load.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

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.

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.

What is the difference between a gear with hub (PM) and a plate wheel (CM), and when should you choose which?

The hub extends the part axially and makes mounting on the shaft easier (more room for a key or a clamping ring), while the plate wheel is flat and lighter - it is chosen when the design already has its own bearing arrangement/mounting and the gear only has to transmit the meshing.

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.

Where is this product used?

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

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.
