A 1B 6-Z32096 is a bronze worm gear with 96 teeth and a pitch diameter of 3.000 inches, designed to mesh with a 32-pitch right-hand steel worm. It has a bore diameter of 0.438 inches and a hub height of 0.3119 inches, with a hub diameter of 11/16 inch. The gear is part of a 32-pitch system with a 25° pressure angle and is intended for use with quadruple-thread worms. The tooth count and pitch diameter define its 24:1 gear ratio with the matched worm.
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.
