The A 1B12-N244 is a 48-inch long brass gear rack with a 24 diametral pitch and a 14.5¬8 pressure angle. This product is designed for applications requiring linear motion conversion from rotary motion, typically in conjunction with a pinion gear. The brass material offers good corrosion resistance and durability, making it suitable for various environments. The rack's dimensions and specifications allow for compatibility with standard pinion gears, facilitating integration into mechanical systems. This gear rack can be utilized in a range of applications, including lifting and positioning systems, steering mechanisms, and other machinery requiring precise linear movement.
A gear rack is used to create linear motion out of rotary motion. Gear racks have square or round shafts with straight, equally spaced teeth; a pinion gear’s teeth mesh with the teeth of the rack. We combined as a unit they are referred to as a “rack and pinion”.
Gear racks are used in a variety of applications, and it may be necessary to pair them for length. Pairing can be accomplished by having racks with matching machined ends. They can also be modified to contain mounting holes. Racks and pinions are found in lifting and positioning systems where vertical or horizontal linear movement is necessary. They are commonly found in steering systems for vehicles, lathes, packaging machines, depth and height gauges, elevators, gates, stair lifts, and pneumatic actuators, to name a few.
Our inch and metric gear racks are available in steel, stainless steel, aluminum, nylon, and plastic in a variety of finishes and heat treatments, in pitches ranging from 120 to 1/20 and modules from 0.3 to 10.
