Spur Gears
(Click on thumbnail to enlarge)
American Precision Gear Co., Inc. specializes in the custom manufacturing of tight tolerance internal and external custom spur gears. We work to your specifications and all critical contact surfaces are held to your tolerances (up to 0.0001"). We can provide you with AGMA Level 12 quality gears. Every spur gear we manufacture is put through our rigorous QA procedures. Both inch and metric unit spur gears are available.
