The A 1T 6-N485006 is a 48-pitch, right-hand, 50-tooth molded worm gear with a 1.042-inch pitch diameter and 1.084-inch outer diameter, featuring a 0.1875-inch bore with a #6-32 set screw and sub-drill, and a 0.1875-inch face width. The gear is made of acetal with a brass insert and has a 14.5-degree pressure angle. It is designed to mesh with standard steel or brass worms at a right angle.
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.
