Gear tooth shapes
Are the teeth in brass gears cut at the same angle and shape as aluminum gears?

Re: Gear tooth shapes
Lets just say all the teeth are cut to "mesh" well. I dont think the material has anything to with it, as much as say the manufacturer making the gears.

I was wondering if different materials required different angles, or shapes.

I do know that the brass Sol main gear and the duralumin Alphas main gear will interchange and keep the original pinion gears in their respective reels.mark poulson wrote:Thanks for the reply.LgMouthGambler wrote:Lets just say all the teeth are cut to "mesh" well.

Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.
