Abstract
The invention relates to a gear wheel consisting of plastic material or a similar material having a coefficient of thermal expansion higher than that of steel. The gear wheel further includes a helix of steel or another material having a coefficient of thermal expansion similar to or identical with that of steel embedded in the gear rim of the wheel radially inside the teeth, whereby the helix has such a strength and dimension that it determines the coefficient of thermal expansion of the gear rim.
