Re: Bevel/Miter Gear Mounting Distances

Ok. I see the drawing file and the distances listed. I can see that the bevel gears are 12 DP gears so 15 teeth divided by 12 gives me 1.25 in. for the mounting distances.

Do the same rules for spur gear mounting distances apply to bevel and miter gears as well?

For example, if I wanted to use a bevel gear with a 15 tooth input and a 30 tooth output and they were both 12 DP gears would my mounting distance be:

15 / 12 = 1.25
30 /12 = 2.5

Mounting distance = 3.75

Is that correct?
