Gears are the mostly found transmission parts. In a typical gear assembly, one toothed wheel interlocks with another. Gearboxes are often used to plastic worm gear deliver power or transform direction.

Plastic-type gears, as the name suggests are made of plastic instead of metal. Included in these are worm gears, spur gears, helical gears, pinion gears, tooth gears, bevel gears, and planetary gears. The material can be a combination 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 compared to metal gears.
They are resistant to wear and tear as they have low friction coefficient.
Lightweight
Resistant to corrosion
Self-lubricated

These gears are being used extensively in various power transmission and motion control systems. Though we have listed merely five types of plastic material gears, we also provide customized gears as per client’s specifications.
