Starter Plastic Gear
The Starter Plastic Gear is a component found in some starter motors, specifically those used in certain types of engines. It is a gear made of plastic material that is typically installed between the starter motor and the engine’s flywheel or flexplate.
The Starter Plastic Gear serves an important function in the starting process. When the starter motor engages with the flywheel or flexplate, the gear meshes with the teeth on the flywheel or flexplate, allowing the starter motor to rotate and turn the engine over. The use of plastic material for this gear helps reduce noise and vibrations during operation.
It’s worth noting that not all starter motors use a plastic gear, as some may utilize metal gears or other types of gear assemblies. The specific design and materials used in a starter motor’s gear system can vary depending on the vehicle’s make, model, and specific requirements.
