A right-hand acetal worm gear with 50 teeth, a pitch diameter of 40 mm, a bore diameter of 20 mm with H8 tolerance, a width of 14 mm, and a hub length of 4 mm, secured by an M4 set screw. The gear is designed to mesh with a stainless steel worm of module 0.8 and 20° pressure angle.
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.
