The 32 D.P., 20¬8 Pressure Angle, 48" Long Brass Rack, part number A 1B12-Y324, is designed for applications requiring precise linear motion conversion from rotary motion. This gear rack features a pressure angle of 20¬8, which is suitable for various mechanical systems. The brass material provides durability and resistance to corrosion, making it ideal for environments where longevity is essential. The rack's length of 48 inches allows for extensive linear travel, and it can be paired with compatible pinion gears for effective operation. This product is suitable for use in a range of applications, including lifting and positioning systems, and is compatible with existing gear systems that utilize similar specifications.
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.
