plastic worm gear

Gears are the most commonly found transmission parts. In a typical gear assembly, one toothed steering wheel interlocks with another. Gearboxes are often used to deliver power or modify direction.

Plastic material gears, as the name suggests are constructed with plastic instead of metal. These include worm gears, spur gears, helical gears, pinion gears, tooth gears, bevel gears, and planetary gears. The material can be a blend of Nylon (Nylon PA6 or Nylon PA66) and POM (Polyoxymethylene).

Advantages of Plastic Gear:

They can easily can be found in various shapes.
Plastic gears are relatively low-priced.
They produce lower noise in comparison to metal gears.
They are resistant to deterioration as they have low friction coefficient.
Lightweight
Resistant to corrosion
