Spur gears are regularly used for speed reduction or increase, torque multiplication, resolution and accuracy enhancement for positioning systems. The teeth run parallel to the gear axis and can only transfer motion between parallel-axis gear sets. Spur gears mate only one tooth at a time, resulting in high stress on the mating teeth and noisy operation.

By offering modular manufacturing and a broad range of sizes, configurations and materials we have reduced lead time for special applications. We are the only source for plastic motor spindle spur gear.

Properties of nylon spur gear

Plastic Gear VS Metal Gear

Plastic is inexpensive, corrosion resistant, quiet operationally and can overcome missing teeth or misalignment. Plastic is less robust than metal and is vulnerable to temperature changes and chemical corrosion. Acetal, delrin, nylon, and polycarbonate plastics are common.

Other pantone colors can also be made

Various sizes of spur gear can be provided
