The KCG3-20R1J20 is a Right Hand Lead Worm Gear designed with a module of 3, featuring 20 teeth and a single start. It is constructed from cast iron, providing durability and strength for various applications. The gear has a finished bore of 20mm, making it suitable for mounting on compatible shafts. The normal pressure angle is 14¬8 30', which is standard for worm gears, ensuring compatibility with other components. This product is part of a series that includes various configurations, allowing for flexibility in design and application. The allowable torque ratings and specific performance characteristics should be reviewed to ensure it meets the requirements of the intended application.
Module 3, 20 Tooth, 1 Start, Right Handed Cast Iron Worm Gear with 20mm Finished Bore
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.
