worms and worm gears provide an effective answer for power transmission applications requiring high-ratio quickness reduction in a limited space using right angle (90°), non-intersecting shafts. When properly applied, worms and worm gears supply the smoothest, quietest type of gearing.

Because the performance of a worm gear drive depends upon the business lead angle and quantity of starts on the worm – and because increased performance is always an objective, the ratio should be kept only possible. To run correctly, worms and worm gears utilized together will need to have the same diametral pitch and threads.

Our worm & worm wheel complete line of worms and worm gears can be ordered through the Boston Equipment Guaranteed Same Time Shipment Program for the fastest delivery possible.
