The Boston Gear 34522 14.5‚° Pressure Angle Spur Gear is engineered to transmit motion and power efficiently between parallel shafts. Designed with a 14.5‚° pressure angle, this gear offers a higher contact ratio, resulting in smoother and quieter operation compared to gears with a 20‚° pressure angle. Constructed from high-quality steel, it ensures durability and resistance to wear, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications. The gear features 22 teeth, a 2.75" pitch diameter, and a 1.25" face width, with a 1.375" bore diameter and a 3/8" x 3/16" keyway. Its precise dimensions allow for compatibility with standard shaft sizes, facilitating easy integration into existing systems. The 14.5‚° pressure angle reduces backlash due to center distance variations and concentricity errors, enhancing operational precision. This gear is ideal for parallel shaft applications, including material handling, feed drives, machine tools, conveyors, and marine hoists. By selecting the Boston Gear 34522, businesses can achieve efficient power transmission, reduced noise levels, and extended equipment lifespan, leading to improved operational efficiency and reduced maintenance costs.
