What are the advantages of nylon gears over metal gears?

Nylon’s combination of fatigue resistance, impact resistance and wear resistance makes it extremely popular in gear applications and has been successfully used in spur, worm, helical and helical gears for 25 years. Today in various industries, nylon gears are constantly replacing steel, wood, copper, cast iron, and phenolic.

Nylon gears are true self-lubricating nylon, and the lubricant contained in nylon gears will not be lost, adsorbed and exhausted, and does not need to be re-added. A self-lubricating system is formed during the gear meshing process, which significantly increases the service life of nylon gears.

Nylon has a good combination of properties, including mechanical properties, heat resistance, wear resistance, chemical resistance and self-lubrication.

Low coefficient of friction, certain flame retardancy, easy processing, suitable for using glass fiber and other fillers to improve performance and expand the scope of application.

Overload protection function, when the twist is too large, the gear itself is damaged, and the power transmission is interrupted, so as to protect the lower device or the safety of life and reduce losses.

Because nylon has safety, light weight, excellent mechanical strength, wear resistance and good corrosion resistance, it replaces copper and other metals and is widely used in the manufacture of bearings, gears, pumps in machinery, chemical industry, instrumentation, automobile and other industries. Leaf and other parts.
