175-5202: 70 Teeth Camshaft Drive Gear

The Camshaft Drive Gear helps in controlling the opening and closing of the engine's valves. It is responsible for converting the rotational motion of the camshaft into the linear motion required to actuate the valves. The camshaft gear is mounted on the end of the camshaft, usually secured by a keyway or spline connection. It rotates at half the speed of the crankshaft, as the camshaft completes one revolution for every two revolutions of the crankshaft. Attributes: • Withstands the high loads and stresses • Ensure accurate tooth profiles and proper meshing with other gears Applications: The Camshaft Drive Gear allows for the adjustment of valve timing and duration based on engine speed, load, and other factors.
