About this model

M1.5 Z40 Spur Gear (model M1.5-Z40) is a standard item in the KEDI Spur Gears range, with Module 1.5; Teeth 40; Pressure Angle 20°; Material C45 / alloy steel / stainless / engineering plastic. It is produced to drawing and standard, inspected for dimensions and hardness before shipment, and can be supplied alone or as a matched set with mating transmission parts. Material, heat treatment, bore and surface finish can be adapted to the application.

Material & process

MaterialC45 / S45C carbon steel, 42CrMo alloy steel, stainless steel; cast iron or aluminium for pulleys; nylon for light-duty racks
Heat treatmentQuenching and tempering, induction hardening of teeth, carburising for high-load gears
Tooth finishHobbed or milled standard; shaved or ground for higher accuracy grades
SurfaceBlack oxide, zinc plating, phosphating or natural finish with anti-rust oil
Custom optionsBore and keyway, set-screw holes, hub length, helix hand, mounting holes and lengths to drawing

Quality control

  • Tooth profile, pitch and runout checked on CMM for precision parts
  • Hardness verified after heat treatment
  • Bore, keyway and hole positions checked with gauges
  • Cumulative pitch error and straightness checked on precision racks

How to select

  1. Define module (or pitch), pressure angle and helix angle to match the mating part.
  2. Check transmitted torque and speed to choose material and heat treatment.
  3. Select accuracy grade by positioning and noise requirements.
  4. Specify bore, keyway and mounting holes, or send the shaft and mounting drawing.
  5. For racks, state total travel so joint positions and segment lengths can be planned.

Ordering & packing

  • For a quotation, send: model M1.5-Z40, quantity and delivery destination
  • For custom versions: drawing or sample, material, heat treatment and finish
  • Packing: anti-rust oil, moisture-proof wrap, carton or wooden case; labels on request
  • Lead time: confirmed with the quotation for standard sizes, and after drawing review for custom parts

Frequently asked questions

Can you make gears to my drawing?

Yes. Send a 2D/3D drawing or a sample; module, tooth count, bore and material can all be customised.

Do helical racks need a matching pinion?

Yes. The pinion must have the same module and helix angle with the opposite hand; we supply both as a matched set.

How are long racks joined?

Racks are machined with matched end pitch so segments can be joined continuously using a joining gauge.
