Plastic Worm Gears
A worm gear is a gear mechanism that resembles a screw and works in conjunction with a worm wheel (similar to a regular gear). The unique aspect of this design is that the rotational motion of the worm can be converted into the rotational motion of the worm wheel, allowing for a high reduction ratio.
We supply worm gears and gear related products with best quality and price. The plastic worm gear related products include worm gear valve drives, worm gear pumps, worm gear linear actuators, etc. Compared with spur gears, worm gears can offer quieter force driving.
Features of Worm:
- High efficiency
- Irreversible motion
- Good for Compact design
- High load capacity
- Reduced vibration and noise

About Plastic Gears
A gear is a toothed wheel designed to transmit force to another gear or toothed component. The teeth of a gear can be shaped to minimize wear, vibration and noise, and to maximize the efficiency of power transmission.
Gears of differing size are often used in pairs for a mechanical advantage, allowing the torque of the driving gear to produce a larger torque in the driven gear at lower speed, or a smaller torque at higher speed.
The Advantages of Plastic Gars:- Plastic gears are easily molded into various shapes so they have wider range of configuration.
- Plastic gears are less expensive and are lighter in weight.
- Plastic gears are chemical and corrosion resistant.
- Plastic gears have quieter and smoother operation and offer more efficient drive geometry.
- Plastic gears are with inherent self lubricating.
While plastic gears offer these many advantages over metal gears, their effective use requires proper design and engineering to account for possible dimensional and property variations over the expected range of operating conditions.
