Description

A gear is a rotating machine part that utilizes cut teeth, or cogs, to mesh with another toothed part—usually another gear or a linear toothed part (called a gear rack)—to transmit rotational motion and torque. By using a combination of precision gears with the correct ratio, the speed, torque, and even direction of a power source can be changed. Two or more gears working together, called a gear train or a transmission, will almost always create a change in torque. If one gear is larger than the other, a mechanical advantage is produced; the rotational speed and torque of the respective gears differs in proportion to their diameters.

HZPT is a leading manufacturer of precision gears for all applications. We provide precision gears in standard and custom inch-measure sizes and a variety of configurations, including spur gears, anti-backlash gears, worm gears, helical gears, bevel gears, miter gears, pinion gears, and more.

We also offer a full line of precision gears in metric sizes.
