Re: Gear Help Needed- Urgent

materials for gears:

steel- used for high tourqe high speed operations

aluminum - used for less strain all around use

plastics - used for low power and general opperation many for wet enviorments

in most places you can buy gears there are strenth/ speed ratings check those vs the opperation they are for before buying
