Standard Gear Racks

Standard Gear Racks

Gear racks feature industry standard 14-1/2° pressure angle for applications where control of backlash is critical (will not operate with 20° spurs). Precision machining for minimal center distance variation and improved concentricity of mating spur gears. These gear racks can be modified for specific applications such as drilling and tapping mounting holes, cutting to specific lengths, or matching ends of two pieces of rack to create a continuous length longer than stock.

Gear racks are utilized to convert rotating movement into linear motion. A gear rack has straight teeth cut into one surface of a square or round section of rod and operates with a pinion, which is a small cylindrical gear meshing with the gear rack. Generally, gear rack and pinion are collectively called "rack and pinion". There are many ways to use gears. For example, as shown in the picture, a gear is used with the gear rack to rotate a parallel shaft.

Rack and pinions are used for lifting mechanisms (vertical movement), horizontal movement, positioning mechanisms, stoppers and to permit the synchronous rotation of several shafts in general industrial machinery. On the other hand, they are also used in steering systems to change the direction of cars. The characteristics of rack and pinion systems in steering are as follows: simple structure, high rigidity, small and lightweight, and excellent responsiveness. With this mechanism, the pinion, mounted to the steering shaft, is meshed with a steering rack to transmit rotary motion laterlly (converting it to linear motion) so that you can control the wheel. In addition, rack and pinions are used for various other purposes, such as toys and lateral slide gates.
