A 1B 6-Z24048 is a bronze worm gear with 48 teeth, a pitch diameter of 2.000 inches, a bore diameter of 0.3119 inches, a hub length of 5/16 inch, and a hub projection of 3/4 inch. It is designed to mesh with a 24-pitch, right-hand, quadruple-thread steel worm having a 25° pressure angle and a lead of 0.5236 inches. The bore tolerance is +0.0010/-0.0000 inches. The gear is made of bronze and is intended for use with steel worms in standard 90° orthogonal shaft arrangements.
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.
