A 1B 6-Y24096 is a 96-tooth bronze worm gear with a 4.000-inch pitch diameter, 5/8-inch bore, 7/8-inch hub length, and 3/8-inch hub thickness, designed for use with a 24-pitch right-hand steel worm. It has a lead of 0.2618 inch and a lead angle of 9° 28'. The bore tolerance is +0.0010/-0.0000 inch. The gear is paired with a 20° pressure angle worm and operates in a 90° shaft configuration, typical for worm gear sets. It is part of the 24-pitch worm gear series with a double-threaded worm for a 48:1 reduction ratio.
A worm gear pair, or worm gear set, consists of two gears: the worm, which resembles a spiral screw, and the worm gear (aka, worm wheel).
For the pair to mesh, the worm and worm gear must have the same pressure angles, modules, and lead directions (left- or right-hand).
A worm revolves on a shaft that’s perpendicular to the worm gear and the shaft angle is typically 90°. Because the teeth gradually mesh as the worm rotates, there is low noise and low vibration.
