A 64-pitch worm gear with 40 teeth and a 0.1248-inch bore, made from Bronze QQ-B-637 Alloy 464, designed to mesh with a double-threaded worm. It has a 14-1/2° pressure angle and a pitch diameter of 0.625 inch, providing a 20:1 gear ratio when paired with a double-threaded worm. The gear is part of a series available with single, double, or quadruple-threaded worms and bore sizes of 1/8, 3/16, or 1/4 inch, all paired with 303 stainless steel worms.
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.
