A nylon gear rack is a linear gear component made from high-strength nylon, featuring a series of teeth along its length that mesh with a pinion gear to convert rotational motion into linear movement. This lightweight, corrosion-resistant alternative to metal racks is ideal for applications requiring smooth, quiet operation and low maintenance, such as sliding doors, window openers, and light-duty industrial machinery. Nylon’s natural lubricity reduces friction, minimizing wear on both the rack and pinion, while its flexibility absorbs shocks and vibrations. It is resistant to chemicals, moisture, and temperature fluctuations, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Available in various lengths, tooth profiles, and thicknesses, nylon gear racks can be easily cut to custom sizes for specific projects. Our nylon gear racks are engineered for consistent performance, with precise tooth spacing to ensure reliable meshing with pinions. They are compatible with metal or nylon pinions and offer a cost-effective solution for low to medium load applications.
