16DP lathe gears needed Steve 08-22-2006

Anyone know where I can get 16DP gears in 20 and 30 teeth sizes (14.5
degree pitch angle) - i.e. standard screwcutting gears for lathes such
as the Raglan, Pools Special, Early Zyto, Kerry, Mellor, Senior, and
most Atlas lathes.. and I am sure a few more?

If you have any tucked away under a bench I will turn them into beer
tokens ! I don't care much about the thickness or hole size, just so
long as they aren't plastic !

Thanks
Steve

If you don't find any used, you can get them from HPC Gears:

Nope,
HPC's current range is all 20 DP, they will do 14.5 to order but if
you have to ask you can't afford them, <g>

16DP was also standard on Harrison and Colchester lathes in 14.5
G&M Tools usually has some listed on their web site.

Oh sorry. I missed the pitch angle bit. Any idea what they do charge for
specials? I have a need for a 115 mm diameter brass disc, 5 mm thick,
4.75 mm bore with boss and grubscrew, no teeth, 30 x 5 mm holes drilled
equi-spaced in a 95 mm diameter circle. I need to do a drawing to get an
official quote, and I'm not keen to go to the effort if I know it's
going to cost a fortune.

Had discovered HPC, but wrong pitch angle. Boston gears in the states
do the right ones, but I thought I would ask to see if we can turn up
some old ones before I go into the import business !! I guess the cost
will not be cheap (though the exchange rate isn't too bad at the
moment).

Hey, have just checked their website and they now list UK distributors.
I could have sworn they were US and Canada only last time I looked. It
might still be cheaper to import them though !

If (like me) you need gears try www.bostongear.com and look at the PDF
section under Literature > Open Gearing > Change Gears.

I would still prefer a nice (cheap) used gear if someone has one tucked
away !
