Gears are the mostly found transmission components. In a typical equipment assembly, one toothed steering wheel interlocks with another. Gearboxes can be used to deliver power or change direction.
Plastic-type material gears, as the brand suggests are constructed of plastic instead of metal. These include worm gears, spur gears, helical gears, pinion gears, tooth gears, bevel gears, and planetary gears. The materials can be a mixture of Nylon (Nylon PA6 or Nylon PA66) and POM (Polyoxymethylene).
Benefits of Plastic Gear:
They can easily can be found in plastic worm gear various shapes.
Plastic-type gears are relatively affordable.
They produce lower noise in comparison to metal gears.
They are resistant to deterioration because they have low friction coefficient.
Lightweight
Resistant to corrosion
Self-lubricated
These gears are being used extensively in various power transmission and motion control systems. Though we’ve listed just five types of plastic material gears, we also give customized gears as per client’s specifications.
