Hobbyists, robotics engineers, and maker-space professionals who need a reliable plastic pinion gear will find this 1 Mod 60-tooth blue nylon spur gear an ideal drop-in solution for low-to-medium torque applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eEach gear is machined from engineering-grade blue nylon (PA66 equivalent), offering a good balance of rigidity and self-lubrication. The module is 1M with 60 teeth, giving an outside diameter of approximately 62 mm (2.44 in). The stepped center bore is available in sizes from 6 mm to 20 mm (0.24 in – 0.79 in), allowing direct shaft mounting without additional adapters. Face width is typically 10–12 mm (0.39–0.47 in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTypical use cases include: 3D printer extruder and axis drives requiring a low-noise 1 mod plastic spur gear, lightweight robotic arm joints where a 60-tooth nylon pinion gear reduces inertia, and DIY automation rigs or CNC pen plotters that benefit from a corrosion-resistant plastic gear with step bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-compat\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"hdiy-compat-icon\"\u003e⚙️\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meshes with any standard Module 1 (1M) spur gear or rack.
