Spare double gear for Ricoh AB017514, 12 and 27 teeth

Double gear Ricoh AB017514 is a twin-gear spare part with 12 and 27 teeth designed for compatible Ricoh printers and copiers. It restores mechanical feed and drive functions where a dual-tooth gear is required, supporting accurate engagement between shafts and rollers to maintain reliable paper transport and timing in office equipment.

Advantages

This spare double gear combines two different tooth counts in a single component to simplify replacement and reduce the number of parts required for repairs. Manufactured to match the form and fit of the original part, it ensures consistent meshing with mating gears and minimizes play that can cause misfeeds or noise. The design supports long service intervals under standard office conditions and allows technicians to perform targeted mechanical repairs without replacing larger assemblies.

Suitable for

• Repair and maintenance of Ricoh printers and copiers that use a dual-tooth drive gear
• Replacement of worn or damaged feed and timing gears during service visits
• Workshop spare parts inventory for professional service technicians
• Restoring accurate paper transport in multifunction devices

Key specifications

• Gear type: double/twin gear with two separate tooth counts
• Teeth: one gear section with 12 teeth and one with 27 teeth
• Material: durable engineering plastic suitable for mechanical drive applications
• Mounting: press-fit or shaft-mounted gear geometry compatible with original equipment mating parts
• Application: mechanical feed, timing and drive functions in office printers and copiers

How to use

Identify the worn or damaged gear in the printer or copier and power off the device before servicing. Disassemble the relevant cover and remove any retaining clips or fasteners to access the gear train. Note the orientation and engagement of surrounding gears and rollers to ensure correct reassembly. Remove the old gear and install the double gear in the same orientation, ensuring it seats fully on the shaft and engages adjacent gears without binding. Reassemble covers and fasteners, then perform a test feed cycle to verify smooth paper transport and correct timing.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate hand tools and anti-static precautions when servicing electronic office equipment. Avoid using excessive force when fitting the gear to prevent shaft or hub damage. If persistent noise or misfeeds remain after replacement, inspect adjacent gears, bearings, and rollers for wear or contamination before replacing additional components.
