Plastic Gear Racks

When it comes to lightweight, cost-effective linear motion solutions, plastic gear racks are an excellent choice. These innovative components combine the functionality of traditional metal gear racks with the unique properties of modern plastics. 

Plastic gear racks are linear racks made from various polymer materials, designed to mesh with a pinion gear to convert rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa. They offer several advantages over their metal counterparts: 

• Lightweight: Significantly lighter than metal alternatives, reducing the overall weight of your machinery. 
• Corrosion Resistant: Ideal for use in environments where metal racks might corrode or rust. 
• Self-Lubricating: Many plastic materials have inherent lubrication properties, reducing maintenance needs. 
• Quiet Operation: Perfect for applications where noise reduction is important. 
• Chemical Resistance: Suitable for use in environments with exposure to various chemicals. 
• Cost-Effective: Often more affordable than their metal counterparts, especially for larger production runs. 
• Customizable: Can be easily moulded to specific shapes and sizes, allowing for greater design flexibility. 

Our range of plastic gear racks includes various materials such as re-enforced PAG, offering unique properties to suit different applications. Whether you need racks for light-duty consumer products or more demanding industrial uses, our expert team can help you find the perfect plastic gear rack solution.

Spur Gear Racks

Spur gear racks are the most common type of gear racks used in various mechanical applications. These linear gears feature straight teeth that are perpendicular to the face of the rack, designed to mesh perfectly with spur pinion gears. 

Key features of spur gear racks include: 

• Simplicity: The straightforward design of spur gear racks makes them easy to manufacture and maintain. 
• Efficiency: With proper lubrication, spur gear racks can achieve high efficiency rates, ensuring minimal power loss in your system. 
• Versatility: Spur gear racks can be used in a wide range of applications, from small precision instruments to large industrial machinery. 
• Cost-Effectiveness: The simple design of spur gear racks makes them one of the most economical gear rack options available. 

We offer a wide range of spur gear racks in various materials, sizes, and tooth configurations to suit different applications. Whether you need a standard off-the-shelf solution or a custom-designed rack for a unique application, our team of experts is here to help you find the perfect fit.
