PRODUCTS
Moore Gear & Manufacturing® gears and gear racks are used in machine tool and automation equipment, agricultural equipment, material handling, and oil & gas among many other applications.
Gears and gear racks can be customized to your specifications as part of the manufacturing process, saving you time and money. Our products can be manufactured using a variety of materials.
Custom & Stock Gear Racks
Custom and stock gear racks are manufactured on the latest CNC rack machines. All gear racks have tight tolerances on the tooth-to-tooth spacing, and excellent machined finish on teeth, and a steady pitchline-to-back dimension. All this translates into a smooth, steady ride for the pinion.
STOCK GEAR RACKS in 14 ½ degree and 20 degree pressure angles in 4-foot, 6-foot, and 12-foot lengths are available for immediate delivery. All our standard off-the-shelf gear racks are made from low carbon steel with the same care and precision as our custom gear racks.
