S1C84Z-P064B055S is a 55-tooth worm gear with a 0.2498 in. bore, designed to mesh with a single-threaded worm for a 55:1 speed reduction. It is made of bronze (QQ-B-637 Alloy 464) and features a 14-1/2° pressure angle, 64 diametral pitch, and a right-hand helix. The gear has a pitch diameter of 0.8594 in. and is part of a series with bronze worms and 303 stainless steel worms available in single, double, or quadruple thread configurations.
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.
