Hello all, Can someone give me information on the diametrical pitch of the gears in the Craftsman Commercial gearbox, I know most of the gears are 16 pitch but some of the gears have a different pitch, I think they are 20 diametrical pitch 14 degree pressure angle but not sure, I need to buy a set of cutters. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks John.
 
If you measure the diameter of the gear and count the teeth, the D.P. is the number of teeth plus 2 divided by the O.D.
 
Thanks, I know how to figure out diametrical pitch, I don't want to take the gearbox off to measure a gear. I just thought someone might know offhand. Thanks,John.
