A 1P 6MYK08R020 is a right-hand worm gear with 20 teeth, made of acetal, designed to mesh with a stainless steel worm of module 0.8 and 20° pressure angle. It has a bore diameter of 10.4 mm with an H8 tolerance, an overall width of 17 mm, a pitch diameter of 16 mm, and a hub projection of 5 mm. The gear includes a 3 mm set screw and a hub diameter of 12 mm. It is housed in a right-hand configuration compatible with matching worm drives.
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.
