 Boston Gear's worms and worm gears provide an effective answer for power transmission applications requiring high-ratio speed reduction in a limited space using right angle (90°), non-intersecting shafts. When properly applied, worms and worm gears provide the smoothest, quietest form of gearing.
Because the efficiency of a worm gear drive depends on the lead angle and number of starts on the worm - and because increased efficiency is always a goal, the ratio should be kept as low as possible. To run properly, worms and worm gears used together must have the same diametral pitch and threads.
Our complete line of worms and worm gears can be ordered through the Boston Gear Guaranteed Same Day Shipment Program for the fastest delivery possible
- 90°, non-intersecting shaft applications answer highly specialized power transmission needs.
- Our worm gears offer the smoothest, quietest form of gearing.
- They provide high-ratio speed reduction in minimal spaces.
- Their efficiency is easily increased by lowering ratios.
- With some ratios, there is resistance to back driving.

Washdown Solutions
Equipment sanitation is a vital part of every food processor’s plan to keep their product fresh, healthy, and safe. It is also the leading cause of failure for many power train components, including speed reducers. Because different industries have different sanitation challenges, Boston Gear offers four different levels of washdown protection, each field proven in food processing operations coast to coast.
 The secret to the all NEW world class washdown treatment lies with the specially designed epoxies and curing agents used. The Bisphenol-F type epoxy, offers a much higher level of corrosion resistance due to the intensity of the chemical reactions and the resulting strength of the cross links with the curing agents.
