actually, PIC gears go to as small as a 1.58 mm face, with an OD of 6.5 mm (not that i'd personally use anything that finely pitched on my drivetrains)

also, depending on the type of brass/acetal used, the plastic could end up being stronger (i'm not sure which type of brass is used in gear making).

on an unrelated note, i found a pretty good site for looking up this sort of stuff:
