Product Description

Spur gear module 5, z=12, with hub, hardened

Gear module 5, z=12, with hub - a robust component for building and repairing gear transmissions, reducers and rack drives (gear rack + gear). Made of C45E steel (EN 10083-1) with induction-hardened teeth (45-55 HRC) - a variant intended for the most intensively used drives.

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 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.

Can a module gear be ordered with a number of teeth outside the standard catalogue range?

Yes, in addition to ready stock we also produce CNC gears to order with a non-standard number of teeth, and for short lead times we additionally print them using 3D technology from glass-fibre-reinforced plastics.

How do you choose the gear material (C45E steel, stainless steel or plastic) for specific operating conditions?

C45E steel is a universal choice for most industrial drives, stainless steel performs well in humid or aggressive environments, and plastics are used for lower loads or when quiet running and lubrication-free operation matter.

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.
