Is there any rules as to the direction of rotation for a pair of spiral miter gears, SMS3-25R/L?
– They are usable for both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. However, care must be taken of the axial thrust forces. With spiral miter gears there is a backward thrust on one gear and a forward thrust on the mating gear, depending upon the direction of rotation and gear hand. It is necessary, therefore, that the thrust bearings must be selected properly to sustain these axial loads and prevent axial movement of the loaded shaft.
