Frequently Asked Questions

What is a double helical gear and how does it differ from a standard helical gear?

A double helical gear features two opposing helix angles on the same gear body, effectively canceling out the axial thrust forces that single helical gears produce. This design enables smoother, quieter operation under high loads and high speeds, making it ideal for demanding applications in industrial, aerospace, and heavy equipment sectors where thrust management is critical.
