8E-3880: Oil Pump Gear

An Oil Pump Gear with a shaft and key is a component of an oil pump used in internal combustion engines. The oil pump is responsible for circulating oil throughout the engine to lubricate its moving parts and prevent damage. This spur gear has straight teeth that mesh together to transfer rotational force. The shaft is a cylindrical rod that supports the gear and allows it to rotate. The key is a small, rectangular metal piece that fits into a groove on the shaft and the gear to prevent them from rotating independently of each other. Attributes: • Minimal slippage and maximum power transfer between the gear and the shaft • Provided with a key, preventing any wobbling that could result in reduced efficiency or the premature wear of the gear or the shaft Applications: An Oil Pump Gear is used in the Engine Oil Gear Pumps to pressurize the oil inside the pump housing and ensure proper lubrication to prevent engine damage.
