Model Code Explained#

Each code combines material, tooth type, finish and hardness — e.g. GY-CHTGH = S45C, helical, tetragon bar, ground, hardened.

FieldMeaning
MaterialC = S45C; M = SCM440
Rack typeS = straight; H = helical
ShapeT = tetragon bar; R = round bar
Tooth treatmentG = ground; M = milled
HardnessH = hardened; Q = tempered & quenched; blank = none
Modulee.g. 20 = M2
Lengthe.g. 05 = 500mm; 10 = 1,000mm
HolesN = no holes
Sides ground-G = sides ground
TypeS = standard; C = custom

Rack Assembly Instructions#

  1. Racks can be joined to any length; the gap between two adjacent racks must be adjusted to match the pitch.
  2. Position and fasten the first rack.
  3. Use an opposite tooth gauge to locate the next rack and keep the joint pitch continuous.
  4. Check every joint and measure the rack parallelism / straightness with a dial gauge.
  5. Locking pins should be used when assembling the racks.
