APPLICATION NOTES
Where this component fits
Herringbone (double-helical) gears cancel opposing axial thrusts while retaining the smooth engagement of helical teeth. They appear in higher-power industrial drives where thrust management and continuous duty are critical. Full geometry—including apex treatment, module and face width—plus load and speed data are needed for a meaningful quote.
