A 1T 6-Y483006 is a 48-pitch molded worm gear with 30 teeth, a pitch diameter of 0.625 inch, an outside diameter of 0.667 inch, and a bore size of 0.1875 inch for a #4-40 set screw. It has a face width of 0.1875 inch, a hub diameter of 0.4375 inch, and a hub length of 0.625 inch. The gear is made of acetal with a brass insert and is designed to mesh with standard steel or brass worms at a 20-degree pressure angle. The gear operates as a right-hand helical gear at 90 degrees to its mating worm.
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.
