Description of Boston Gear HLK115Y Miter Pressure

Straight miter 90 degree mesh transmits mechanical power between perpendicular shafts. Pressure angle of 20 degrees for a lower contact ratio between gears, resulting in higher load capacity than smaller pressure angles. Low carbon steel (.2 percent carbon) for applications where the hardness and strength of higher levels of carbon are not needed to transmit torque and motion. Hardened teeth for 1:1 gear ratio applications where hardness and strength are needed to transmit torque and motion. Bore has keyway and setscrew for use with keyed shaft.

Terrible Miter Gear - Avoid!

As an industrial and scientific buyer, I was disappointed with this gear.It didn`t perform as expected and caused some serious issues in my power transmission system. As a result of using this product, I found that it was poorly designed and lacked durability. The only positive thing I can say is that it was easy to install but that's not enough to make up for its flaws. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this miter gear..

Pros
  • Pro: Easy to install
Cons
  • Con: Poorly designed, lacking durability
