Boston Gear L112Y Miter Gear, 1:1 Ratio, 20 Degree Pressure Angle, 0.500" Bore, 1.375" Mounting Distance, 16 Pitch, 24 Teeth, Steel

Key features

• Straight miter 90 degree mesh transmits mechanical power between perpendicular shafts
• Pressure angle of 20 degrees for a lower contact ratio between gears, resulting in higher load capacity than smaller pressure angles
• Low carbon steel (.2 percent carbon) for applications where the hardness and strength of higher levels of carbon are not needed to transmit torque and motion
• Unhardened teeth for 1:1 gear ratio applications where hardness and strength are not needed to transmit torque and motion

This steel Boston Gear L series miter gear has a 20 degree pressure angle (PA) and a straight miter to transmit torque between perpendicular shafts to provide rotational power to another part of a motorized system. This gear has a plain bore, is made of low carbon steel (.2 percent carbon), and has unhardened teeth for 1:1 gear ratio applications where hardness and strength are not needed to transmit torque and motion. The 20 degree pressure angle provides a lower contact ratio between gears than a 14.5 degree pressure angle, resulting in higher load capacity. This gear is intended for use only with identical gears because miter gears can mesh only with gears that have the same pressure angle, number of teeth, and diametral pitch (number of teeth per inch). This Boston Gear miter gear is suitable for use in a variety of commercial and industrial applications, such as construction equipment, aeronautics, conveyors, and manufacturing equipment, among others.Miter gears have a blunt-end cone shape with teeth along the cone face and are used for transmitting torque and motion between perpendicular rotating shafts. A miter gear's pressure angle (PA), spiral angle, diametral pitch (also
