With straight, conically shaped teeth and a 1:1 speed ratio, miter gears connect two shafts at a right angle without changing shaft speed or torque. They're more efficient than spiral miter gears because they create less friction.

A type of miter gear where one gear is smaller than the other, bevel gears provide right-angle speed reduction at ratios ranging from 2:1 to 5:1. They’re more efficient than worm gears because they create less friction.

Made from carbon steel with spiral teeth, these gears handle heavier loads at higher speeds than bevel gears with straight teeth because their teeth stay in contact longer.

The current industry standard, these 20° pressure angle gears have thicker, stronger teeth than 14½° pressure angle gears. They're also known as spur gears.

Connect two shafts at a right angle without changing shaft speed or torque.

These plastic gears are lighter and quieter than metal gears—pair them with metal worms for lubrication-free operation. Worm gears use screw threads to make large reductions to shaft speed while transmitting motion at a right angle.
