The process of selecting small inch size drive components for new prototypes or production applications just became easier.
The S10A6Z, S10A8Z and S10A9Z 20deg pressure angle alloy steel gears are available, off-the-shelf, in 24, 32 and 48 pitch and are designed to fit 0.635, 0.952 or 1.27cm shafts.
They range in size from 18 to 192 teeth and are available in 0.635 and 0.952cm face widths.
The core hardness for these gears is Rc38.
The surface hardness is Rc55 or higher.
The finish is black due to the final heat treatment, and it may be omitted from the bore.
The corrosion-resistant surface combined with appropriate lube let them work in any harsh environment, under heavy loads.
These gears have two tapped #8-32 UNC holes at 90deg.
Two cup point 18-8 stainless steel set screws are supplied with the gears.
