KSUW2.5-R1 is a stainless steel worm with module 2.5, 1 start, and a plain bore. The worm has a normal pressure angle of 14°30', standard full-depth teeth, and is made of SUS303 stainless steel with a tooth hardness of less than 187 HB. It has a pitch diameter of 37 mm, outside diameter of 42 mm, face width of 18 mm, and total length of 63 mm. The product is designed for use with plastic worm wheels, generates axial thrust forces, and requires lubrication if operated above the specified sliding speed limits.
Module 2.5, 1 Start Stainless Steel Worm with Plain 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.
