Conical gears can play an important part in machinery or also vehicles, for they can "bend the axis of rotation in a gear train by 90 degrees." Conical gears come in different styles and shapes: a conical spiral gear, internal conical gear, conical helical gear, conical spur gears, and there are miniature conical gears. Plastic conical gears also have their place in industry.

Finding good conical gear manufacturers can be a way to not only provide the best gears for your company, but also to save money. When looking for the conical gears that are right for your business, consider these options.

1. Look for manufacturers of conical gears.

2. Search manufacturers of plastic conical gears.

3. Seek manufacturers of the cone gear box and cone drive gear box.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Find manufacturers of conical gears


These manufacturers often make more than one kind of conical gear.

I recommend: Companies like Avon Gear make helical conical gears, as well as spur, spiral and internal gears. Others, like American Swiss Products, specialize in miniature conical gears. All three companies invite their customers to contact them for quotes. Grob also creates conical gears, but does so in rod stock, which, as they state, allows, "you the flexibility to create a steel spur gear that meet your exact specifications.”

Find a manufacturer of plastic conical gears


Plastic conical gears have their use in various applications, such as in consumer, electronic, industrial, automotive and medical. Manufacturers use injection molding in the creation of their plastic conical gears.

I recommend: Companies that specialize in plastic conical gears are ATEK Plastics, G.S.F. Plastics and Precision Tool and Die. Each company invites their clients to contact them for pricing.

Search manufacturers of a cone gear drive and a cone gear box


Gearboxes are a necessity in effective power transmission.

I recommend: One name that is almost synonymous with the conical gear box is Cone Drive. This company creates cone drive gear boxes that use both a helical conical gear and a conical spiral gears. Cone Drive also manufactures cone gears and more than one cone gear drive. Atlanta Standard Drive Systems also manufactures conical gear boxes while Akron Gear & Engineering manufactures as well as rebuilds them.
