GC143W-1G

This Gear Commerce GC143W-1G spiral bevel gear has a 14 diametral pitch, 32 case-hardened steel teeth, a 35 degree spiral angle, and a keyway to transmit torque between perpendicular shafts to provide rotational power to another part of a motorized system. This bevel gear is intended for use with an GC143W-1P bevel pinion gear for applications requiring a 2:1 gear ratio. It has a keyway and setscrew for use with a 0.875" diameter keyed shaft (not included), is made of low carbon steel (0.2 percent carbon), and has hardened teeth for applications where hardness and strength are needed to transmit torque and motion. The 20 degree pressure angle provides a lower contact ratio between gears than a smaller pressure angle, resulting in higher load capacity. The 35 degree spiral angle makes this spiral bevel gear better suited for higher speed and larger torque applications than straight bevel gears. This gear is used only with its mating pinion gear because bevel gears can mesh only with gears that have the same pressure angle, spiral angle, and diametral pitch (that is, the number of teeth per inch).
