Polyacetal resin plastic bevel gears with ratios ranging from 1:1 to 5:1 are precision-engineered components designed for transmitting motion between intersecting shafts at a 90-degree angle. Made from polyacetal (POM), a semicrystalline thermoplastic, these plastic bevel gears offer high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability, making them ideal for applications requiring reliable torque transfer, such as in automotive, appliances, and industrial machinery. The gear ratios indicate the speed and torque relationship between paired gears; for example, a 1:1 ratio means equal teeth counts for uniform speed, while a 5:1 ratio involves a larger gear driving a smaller one, amplifying torque.
