When used with Boston Gear worms, Boston Gear worm gears provide effective power transmission in applications requiring high-ratio speed reduction in a limited space using right angle (90°), non-intersecting shafts. They are also the smoothest, quietest form of gearing when properly applied. Boston Gear offers worm gears manufactured from a variety of materials, such as acetal, minlon, bronze, and cast iron to suit your application requirements. Note: Because the efficiency of a worm gear drive depends on the lead angle and number of starts on the worm, the ratio should be kept low. To run properly, worms and worm gears operating together must have the same diametrical pitch and threads.Mating Worm (Hard)10 DP, Quad ThreadRatio4:1Product FamilyWorm GearsDiametrical Pitch10O/P Rating142Product DescriptionWorm Gear, 10 DP, 14.5 PA, 16 Teeth, RH, BronzeAltra Master No.30217844MaterialBronzeBore Size0.750UPC781711137802HandRight HandWeight0.701Flush Face To WM C/L0.438Center Distance1.425Family Id30,065Gear OD1.87Hub Diameter1.500Unit Of MeasureEnglish
