Pinion wire with 10 teeth, 48 diametral pitch, and 20° pressure angle is available in brass and steel, sold in 1, 3, and 5 foot lengths with unfinished ends and a length tolerance of ±0.5 inch. The 10-tooth brass variant has a pitch diameter of 0.208 inch and an outside diameter of 0.250 inch.
The material of pinion wire is dragged through the dies; it is referred to as "drawn" steel, a process that begins with melting several metals together, typically iron plus an additional metal type that is a crucial part of the alloy (smelting). After being slightly cooled, the metal is then coated with a drawing lubricant and pulled through the dies, which form its teeth. The metal cannot be dragged through the dies that shape it without this lubrication.
When a stock gear is not available, spur gears can be made using SDP/SI pinion wires. Available in the following pitches: 64, 48, 44, 32, and 24 (modules 0.4, 0.5, and 0.8) in steel and brass. Other lengths are available upon request.
Steel spur gear stock is also offered in pitches 48, 32, 24, and 20 (modules 0.8 and 1) and is used to make spur gears.
