Using 8620 as a worm gear material
Using 8620 as a worm gear material
(OP)
I'm wondering if anyone has experience with using 8620 (carburized or not)as a worm gear material. I know that the worm itself is usually made from steel but can the gear be made from something other than ductile iron or bronze?

Don't overlook the need for a "cylinder oil" lube or synthetic equiv.
