Features & Benefits

  • Used for transmission of power of motion between non-intersecting shafts

  • Long tooth lead provides quieter and smoother gear mesh
  • Many Helical gears are hardened for longer life
  • They are made in right and left hand 45º Helix Angle with 14 1/2º P.A.
  • Helical Gears of the same hand operate at 90º for motion transfer
  • Helical Gears of opposite hand operate on parallel shafts
  • Recommended for high speed, high torque applications where pitch velocities exceed 1,000 FPM, up to 2400 RPM
  • Helical Gears operating on parallel shafts provide a stronger, smoother and quieter running drive than spur gears of the same pitch and size
  • Meets AGMA quality standards
