The A 1C12MYK15300 is a metric gear rack with a 1.5 module and 20° pressure angle, made of steel, designed to convert rotary motion to linear motion. It has a face width of 16 mm, a length of 300 mm, a height of 14.5 mm, and a width of 16 mm. This part belongs to a series of racks with pitches from 1.5 to 3 and lengths up to 1008.5 mm, all sharing the same pressure angle and material specification.
A gear rack is used to create linear motion out of rotary motion. Gear racks have square or round shafts with straight, equally spaced teeth; a pinion gear’s teeth mesh with the teeth of the rack. We combined as a unit they are referred to as a “rack and pinion”.
Gear racks are used in a variety of applications, and it may be necessary to pair them for length. Pairing can be accomplished by having racks with matching machined ends. They can also be modified to contain mounting holes. Racks and pinions are found in lifting and positioning systems where vertical or horizontal linear movement is necessary. They are commonly found in steering systems for vehicles, lathes, packaging machines, depth and height gauges, elevators, gates, stair lifts, and pneumatic actuators, to name a few.
Our inch and metric gear racks are available in steel, stainless steel, aluminum, nylon, and plastic in a variety of finishes and heat treatments, in pitches ranging from 120 to 1/20 and modules from 0.3 to 10.
