Metric helical gear line

KHK USA Inc., distributor of the market leading KHK brand of metric gears, highlights its extensive line of helical gears, manufactured to the highest quality standards by Kohara Gear Industry Co., of Japan. KHK’s large selection of stock helical gears are suitable wherever high-speed rotation is required, including in machine tools, speed reducers and other industrial machinery. Helical gears are cylindrical disks which have involute-shaped teeth cut into their face at a helix angle. By slanting the teeth, helical gears can obtain a large contact ratio and the gradual change to the contact surface load which give helical gears their characteristic of smooth transmission of rotation.

Premium Gearboxes

KHK USA Inc., distributor of the market leading KHK brand of metric gears, announces its extensive line of right-angle metric gearboxes, manufactured to the highest quality standards by Kohara Gear Industry Co., of Japan. KHK’s large selection of right-angle gearboxes are very quiet, provide smooth transmission of power, and are suitable for a very wide range of applications where speed reduction and a change in orientation is required. KHK right-angle gearboxes are available with either a plastic housing for light-duty applications, an aluminum housing for medium-duty application, and cast-iron housing for heavy-duty applications.

Miter gear series

KHK USA Inc.'s miter gears are available in high precision grades to perform at demanding torques and speeds, and they are also available in commercial grades for economical applications. Miter gears are bevel gears with two rotational axes that intersect at 90° and with a 1:1 gear ratio. They are shaped as a right circular cone and their set of gear teeth intersects at the pitch apex of each gear.
