Please select the most suitable products by carefully considering the characteristics of items and contents of the product ta-bles. It is also important to read all applicable "CAUTION" notes shown below before the final selection.
① Basically, all spur gears, internal gears and racks can bepaired as long as the module and pressure angle match. Products with different materials, tooth widths, or meth-ods of cutting the teeth can be mated.
② When using a pinion with an internal gear with a smalldifference in the numbers of teeth, there are possibili-ties of involute interference, trochoid interference andtrimming interference. See the internal gear interferenceportion of the technical section to avoid problems in as-sembling these items. (Page 182)
Selection Hints
1. Caution in Selecting the Mating GearsThe gear strength values shown in the product pages were computed by assuming a certain application environment. Therefore, they should be used as reference only. We recom-mend that each user computes their own values by applying the actual usage conditions. Also, KSUSF F-loc hub spur gears, KDSF F-loc hub spur gears and various F series that use the friction coupling method to fasten the gear shaft need addi-tional consideration for starting torque.The table below contains the assumptions established for various products in order to compute gear strengths.

■ Calculation of Bending Strength of Gears
■ Calculation of Surface Durability (Except where it is common with bending strength)
[NOTE 1] The gear strength formula is based on JGMA (Japanese Gear Manufacturers Association) specifications, "MC Nylon Technical Data" by Nippon Polypenco Limited and "Duracon Gear Data" by Polyplastic Co. The units for the rotational speed (rpm) and the stress (kgf/mm2) are adjusted to the units needed in the formula.
[NOTE 2] The allowable bending stress at the root σ Flim is calculated from JGMA401-01, and set to 2/3 of the value in the consideration of the use of planetary-, idler-, or other gear systems, loaded in both directions.
[NOTE 3] For KSSG Ground Spur Gears, with module 0.8 or less, thermal refining is applied. Allowable bending stress and allowable hertz stress values are shown in parentheses.[NOTE 4] For KSSS Spur Pinion Shafts, with module over 1.5, tooth induction hardening is not applied. Allowable bending stress and allowable hertz stress values are shown in parentheses.[NOTE 5] KSSS Spur Pinion Shafts with module 1 or less (KSA configuration) are set to cantilever support as they are single shaft types.

When selecting KHK standard gears, glance over the Cautions on Product Characteristics and Cautions on Performing Secondary Operations in the respective dimension tables.
① Products not listed in this catalog or materials, modules, number of teeth and the like not listed in the dimensionaltables can be manufactured as custom items. Please see Page 16 for more details about custom-made orders.
② The color and shape of the product images listed on the dimension table page of each product may differ from the actual product. Be sure to confirm the shape in the dimension table before selection.
③ The details (specifications, dimensions, prices, etc.) listed in the catalog may be changed without prior notice.Changes are announced on the KHK website.
KHK Technical Information
The most important factor in selecting gears is the gear strength.
■ Definition of Bending Strength of Gears
The allowable bending strength of a gear is defined as the al-lowable tangential force at the pitch circle based on the mutu-ally allowable root stress of two meshing gears under load.
Example of failure due to insufficient bending strength
■ Definition of Surface Durability
The surface durability of a gear is defined as the allowable tan-gential force at the pitch circle, which permits the force to be transmitted safely without incurring surface failure. The allowable gear tooth load of a gear is defined as the allowable tangential force at the pitch circle based on the mutual gear tooth strength of two meshing gears under load.
Example of wear due to insufficient surface durability
Step 1 Determine the actual load torque applied to the gear and the gear type suitable for the purpose.
Step 2 Select provisionally from the allowable torque table of the Master Catalog based on the load torque.
■ For provisional selection from the Master Catalog
Step 3 We recommend that each user computes their own values by applying the actual usage conditions to determine the suitability of the gear strength.
Calculate the strength formally using the vari-ous gear strength formulas.Please see Page 71 of our technical reference book for more details.
Strength confirmation is simple when using the website.
(2) Bending strength formula
(10.4)
(10.5)
(10.6)
(10.7)
(3) Calculating various coefficients
In order to satisfy the bending strength, the nominal circum-ferential force Ft on the meshing pitch circle must be less than or equal to the allowable circumferential force Ftlim on the meshing pitch circle calculated by the permissible bending stress at root.
Alternatively, the bending stress at root σF obtained from the nominal circumferential force Ft on the meshing pitch circle must be less than or equal to the permissible bending stress at root σFlim.
The permissible circumferential force Ftlim (kgf) on the meshing pitch circle is obtained by the following equation.
The bending stress at root (kgf/mm2) is obtained by the following equation.

Application Hints
Spur Gears Spur Gears
① If reboring, it is important to pay special attention to lo-cating the center in order to avoid runout.
② The reference datum for gear cutting is the bore. There-fore, use the bore for locating the center. If it is too dif-ficult to do for small bores, the alternative is to use onespot on the bore and the runout of the side surface.
③ If reworking using scroll chucks, we recommend the use of new or rebored jaws for improved precision. Please exer-cise caution not to crush the teeth by applying too muchpressure. Any scarring will cause noise during operation.
④ The maximum bore size is dictated by the requirementthat the strength of the hub is to be higher than that ofthe gear teeth. The maximum bore size should be 60%to 70% of the hub diameter (or tooth root diameter),and 50% to 60% for keyway applied modifications.
⑤ In order to avoid stress concentration, round the keywaycorners.

Induction Hardening
If you apply induction hardening to the gear teeth of S45C products, you need to designate the hardness and where to apply the heat treatment. Below is an example of common specifications and KHK’s specifi-cations for hardening:
● Common Specifications for Heat TreatmentHardening location: Gear tooth surface or tooth
surface and tooth rootHardness: Within the range of 45 to 60 HRC and
10 HRC width (Example: 48 to 58 HRC)
● KHK’s Specifications for Heat TreatmentHardened location: Tooth surface, or Tooth sur-
face and Tooth rootHardness: 50 to 60 HRC
* Hardness and Depth of Gear-teeth Induction HardeningThe hardening method and the state of the hard-ened teeth area vary depending on the size ofgears.Since different hardening treatment is appliedin accordance with the module and number ofteeth, the hardness level you designate is referredto as the hardness of the reference diameter. Forsome of our products, the hardness at tooth tip /root may not be equal to the hardness you desig-nated.As to the effective case depth for S45C, it is spec-ified by JIS, as "The distance from the surface ofthe case to the area with hardness HV450." Thecase depth differs from area to area of a tooth.
⑥ To avoid problems of reduced gear precision andother manufacturing difficulties, do not attempt tomachine the gears to reduce face widths.
⑦ When induction-hardening S45C products, thermalstress cracks may appear. Also, note that the preci-sion grade of the product declines by 1 or 2 grades,as deformation on material may occur. If you requiretolerance for bore or other parts, machining is neces-sary after heat treatment.

1. Cautions on Handling
① KHK products are packaged one by one to preventscratches and dents, but if you find issues such as rust,scratches, or dents when the product is removed fromthe box after purchase, please contact the supplier.
② Depending on the handling method, the product may be-come deformed or damaged. Resin gears and ring gearsdeform particularly easily, so please handle with care.
KHK Technical Information
set screws, or applying flats to the shaft, in case of fas-tening only with set screws.There are also methods of secure settings using a Me-cha-Lock, a POSI-LOCK, or a Spannring, which are parts for engaging the hole and the axis.
Poor tooth contact and pitting
Gear oil (equivalent to JIS gear oil category 2 No. 3) The design conditions were load torque at 278 rpm, 42.5 kg/m (12 kW), 1.5 times the allowable bending strength, and 3 times the allowable surface durability torque. The pitting occurred on the poor tooth contact area after 60 hours of continuous operation.
④ Verify that the two shafts are parallel. Incorrect assembly will lead to uneven teeth contact which will cause noise and wear. (Check the assembly by painting a thin layer of red lead primer or the like on the gear teeth, meshing them together and rotating them.)
■ Test example: Abrasion occurred on KSSG3-30 due to poor edge contact (only 30% with proper contact).
② The table below indicates the tolerance on the totallength of KHK stock spur gears. Please refer to this datawhen designing gear boxes or other components.
③ Spur gears produce no thrust forces; however, be sureto fasten them firmly with stepped shafts, or collars, toprevent shifting toward the shaft.Keyways are generally used in fastening gears to a shaft,and they should be secured by applying drilled holes for
① KHK stock spur gears are designed to give the properbacklash when assembled using the center distance giv-en by the formula below (center distance tolerance ofH7 – H8). For the backlash of each product, please referto the dimension table.Backlash may be adjusted by changing the center dis-tance of mating gears. For more information, please con-sult the technical section on gear backlash (page 56) inour separate technical reference book.

4. Cautions on Starting
3. Points of Caution during Assembly
■ Total Length Tolerance for Spur and Helical Gears
① Check the following items before starting.• Are the gears installed securely?• Is there uneven tooth contact?• Is there adequate backlash?
Be sure to avoid zero-backlash.• Has proper lubrication been supplied?
② If gears are exposed, be sure to attach a safety cover toensure safety. Also, be careful not to touch rotating gears.
③ Gears can be lubricated with the "grease lubrication meth-od", "splash lubrication method (oil bath method)", or "forced lubrication method (circulation lubrication method)".For initial operation, the lubricant may deteriorate mark-edly, so check the condition of the lubricant after starting.For more technical information, please see the section "Gear Lubrication" (Page 112) of our technical reference book.
④ If there is any abnormality such as noise or vibrationduring startup, check the gears and assembly condition."High gear accuracy", "smooth gear teeth surface" and"correct tooth contact" are some of the measures againstgear noise. For more technical information, please seethe section "Gear Noise and Countermeasures" (Page119) of our technical reference book.
