Spur gear module 4 z=80 plate wheel

Product Description

Spur gear module 4, z=80, plate wheel

This module 4 gear (80 teeth, plate wheel) is used wherever reliable, maintenance-free power transmission through involute meshing is required. 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

Does a higher number of teeth (z) with the same module mean a stronger gear?

Not directly - tooth strength depends mainly on the module and face width, not on the number of teeth; a larger z with the same module simply gives a larger gear diameter and a higher ratio relative to the mating gear.

Why is precise machining of module gears crucial for drive service life?

A precisely cut tooth involute guarantees that the gears roll on each other without micro-impacts or slippage. This reduces friction lowers the operating temperature and dramatically extends the service life of the entire gearbox.

What is backlash and why does it matter?

It is a small gap between mating teeth, necessary for lubrication and thermal tolerance; too little backlash leads to seizing and overheating, while too much leads to jerking and faster tooth wear.

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.

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.
