Description

Gears play a huge role in much of the technology around today. For example, car engines, drills, lathes, mills, CD/DVD Drives, printers, mechanical watches, children’s toys, in fact, gears are almost everywhere there are motors and engines which produce a rotational movement.

Nylon Spur gears have significant advantages over their metal counterparts in several ways. Nylon Materials used in gears are, in general, engineering plastics such as polyacetal (POM) and MC Nylon which is essentially polyamide resin. This allows for weight reduction in machine design. They are quiet, absorb vibration and do not need lubrication.
