The Module 1.5, 20° Pressure Angle, Nylon (Machined) Rack, part number A 1M12MYH151000, is designed for applications requiring precise linear motion conversion from rotary motion. This rack features a pressure angle of 20 degrees, which is standard for compatibility with various pinion gears. The material used is machined nylon, offering a lightweight yet durable option suitable for environments where corrosion resistance is important. The rack is part of a series that includes various modules and materials, allowing for flexibility in design and application. Its dimensions and specifications align with metric standards, making it suitable for international engineering projects. This product is ideal for use in systems that require reliable and efficient linear movement.
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.
