Overview

• All Martin miter and bevel gears are generated with the "coniflex" tooth form.
• A slight misalignment of gears is permissible because of the localized tooth bearing running lengthwise along the gear tooth.
• Martin stock miter gears are manufactured from 1144 Carbon steel
• Hardened miter gears have approximately 50% more horsepower capacity and provide greater gear wear than untreated gears.
• All Martin miter gears are cut with the 20° pressure angle system. They will not operate with any other pressure angle system.
• The use of a straight mineral oil as a lubricant is recommended for most miter gear applications.
• All standard stock miter gears must be mounted at right angles (90 degrees) for proper tooth bearing
