Mitre Gears 2 MOD – Precision Metric Bevel Gears UK High-performance mitre gears 2 MOD are designed for accurate right-angle power transmission in industrial and mechanical systems. At BEP Ltd, we supply precision-engineered mitre and bevel gears UK customers rely on for durability, smooth operation, and consistent performance. Our 2 MOD mitre gears are ideal for medium-duty applications where strength, reliability, and precise motion control are essential. What Are 2 MOD Mitre Gears? Mitre gears are a type of bevel gear used to transmit motion between two shafts that intersect—typically at 90°. Key characteristics: Equal number of teeth on both gears Operate at a 1:1 ratio Change direction without changing speed Conical tooth geometry for smooth engagement The 2 MOD (module 2) specification indicates a larger tooth size compared to smaller modules, making these gears suitable for higher load applications. Technical Specifications – Mitre Gears 2 MOD Specification Details Gear Type Metric Mitre Gear Module 2 MOD Gear Ratio 1:1 Shaft Angle Typically 90° Tooth Profile Straight bevel teeth Material Options Steel / Plastic (application dependent) Applications Industrial & mechanical systems For bore sizes, hub types, and tooth counts, please refer to individual product listings. Key Features of 2 MOD Mitre Gears Feature Benefit Larger Tooth Profile Higher load capacity 1:1 Speed Ratio Consistent output speed Right-Angle Transmission Efficient directional change Precision Machining Smooth and reliable engagement Material Flexibility Available in metal and plastic options These features make mitre gears suitable for both heavy-duty and precision applications. Plastic vs Metal Mitre Gears Depending on your application, you can choose between plastic miter gears and metal gears: Material Advantages Typical Use Plastic Mitre Gears Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, low noise Light-duty systems, automation Metal Gears (Steel) High strength, heat resistance, durability Indu
