The S18CCPM020GAGE-G is a joining gauge for ground circular pitch racks with a circular pitch of 2 mm and a 20° pressure angle. It is made from AISI 1045 steel hardened to HRC 27-32, with a tolerance of -0.02 mm to -0.08 mm on the pitch dimension. The gauge has a face width of 8 mm, a height of 12 mm, a pitch distance of 11.364 mm, and an overall length of 45.7 mm. It complies with ISO Class 5 accuracy standards for ground teeth.
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.
