It meshes only with gears of the same module.
OptionalteethHow many teeth the ring has; about 34 at least at 20 degrees, so that the tips of its teeth stay outside the base circle.
OptionalpressureThe angle at which meshing teeth push on each other, in degrees; 20 is the common standard, and meshing gears share it.
OptionalbacklashHow much thinner each tooth is at the pitch circle than a tight fit, in model units; two meshing gears leave the sum of their backlash between their teeth.
OptionaladdendumHow far the teeth reach in from the pitch circle toward the centre, as a share of the module.
OptionaldedendumHow deep the gaps reach out beyond the pitch circle, as a share of the module; more than
addendum leaves room for the tips of the mating gear.
OptionalrootThe radius that rounds the bottom of each gap, as a share of the module. It shrinks to fit a narrow gap, and 0 leaves a sharp corner.
OptionalrotationHow far the ring is turned about its centre, in degrees. At 0 a tooth points along +X.
OptionalsegmentsHow many straight pieces stand for each curve of the outline: each tip, flank piece and root.
