(...) No, it is not really a gear. You might be able to get two of them to mesh, but I wouldn't recommend it. It is used on the Code Pilot (and elsewhere) to measure rotation speed along with a light. (...) The 24 tooth clutch is a torque limiter. (...) (16 years ago, 9-Mar-09, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Ah, right, so it is for that... I really have to find out how to measure torque. I, though, can't see the "2.5-5.0 Ncm" print on the part but I'll take your word for it. In lugnet.technic, Timothy P. Smith wrote: (...) I see... well I don't (...) (16 years ago, 9-Mar-09, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Not sure - I don't have any. (...) The same reason. The part is effectively a torque limiter - it even has the nominal torque limit printed on it (2.5-5.0 Ncm) - where it is placed in the gear chain simply decides how much maximum torque is (...) (16 years ago, 8-Mar-09, to lugnet.technic)

Hello all, I was wondering a couple of things with gears: Is the timing wheel ((URL) a gear? Can two of them interact with each other? What (other) uses does it have? The 24-tooth clutch gear ((URL) seems to absorb motion if it gets stuck. However, (...) (16 years ago, 8-Mar-09, to lugnet.technic)
