The S1819Y-RD-04P is a 1/10 pitch, 20° pressure angle gear rack made of 416 stainless steel, 10.994 inches long, with side and base mounting holes. It has a tooth-to-tooth spacing error of ±0.0005 inch and a total accumulated spacing error of ±0.002 inch. The rack is designed for linear motion applications and features tapped holes for mounting: #4-40 x 3/16 inch. The pitch line parallelism to base is held within ±0.001 inch. The part is machined to tight tolerances and suitable for precision positioning systems.
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.
