The A 1C 5MYK10LC is a left-hand, single-thread steel worm with a pitch diameter of 16 mm, a shaft diameter of 8 mm with an H8 tolerance, and a length of 25 mm. It has a 3° 35' lead angle and a face width of 1.4 mm. The worm is designed to mesh with right-hand worm gears of 20° pressure angle and module 1. The bore is not specified for this variant. The part is part of a series of metric worms with acetal worm gears and brass inserts.
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.
