Thanks,

    Frank are you talking of a geared stepper motor (for increased torque
    purposes) or the step angle?

    Neither. I am trying to purchase a gear, actually a rack gear, for
    the stepper motor. I must know the pitch of the gear shipped with
    the motor so I can purchase the correct mate for it.

    I have checked the Paralax doc and didn't find anything.

    Thanks,
    Frank

    If you can get the number of teeth and the OD, you can figure out the
    pitch.

    The pressure angle is another matter as that is the other major
    considderation on rack selection.
