The A 1Q55-55N32 worm is a right-hand, single-thread worm gear with a 32 pitch and a lead of 0.0982 inches. It features a pressure angle of 14.5 degrees and is constructed from steel. The worm has a face width of 0.2500 inches and a hub diameter of 0.625 inches. This product is suitable for applications requiring precise motion control and is compatible with bronze worm gears. The absence of cross-drilled holes may be relevant for specific assembly requirements. This worm is part of a series designed for commercial and precision applications, making it a viable option for engineers seeking reliable worm gear solutions.
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.
