Mechanical steering gear market: Overview
Mechanical steering gear systems are steering systems that are driven by mechanical force. A manual steering gear system or non-power steering gear system are other names for it. The steering system can be moved using either recirculating ball steering systems or rack and pinion gear systems. In a rack and pinion gear system, the steering system is moved by the rack’s linear motion, which is produced by the pinion’s rotation. A box housing numerous ball bearings is coupled to the drive in a recirculating ball steering system, and as the steering wheel is turned, the drive spins the ball bearings, causing them to turn the nut.

A mechanical steering gear system is composed of a mechanical gearbox, a rack and pinion system, linkages, wheel spindle assemblies, and ball joints. These systems are used in light-weight or tractor-type vehicles.
Drivers & Restraints
The advantage of using a mechanical steering gear system is that it requires no power to drive the system. It uses a mechanical force to drive the steering system. It has an easy and smooth operation and has a large drop arm travel. It is easy to maintain and has a shock absorbing action against vibrations and road shocks
The technology used in these systems is very conventional, and it is replaced by hydraulic steering systems and power steering systems which are more efficient than the mechanical steering gear systems. The disadvantages of using these systems are it’s high resistance to wheel power, a low response at high speeds and its simple structure. Hydraulic and power steering gear systems weigh less and have a straight line stability function. These systems also provide the automatic return of the steering wheel, unlike mechanical steering systems in which a mechanical force is required to do this action.

Region wise Outlook
The mechanical steering gear market is divided into five regions, namely North America, Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East and Africa (MEA). The market share of Asia Pacific is highest in the manufacturing and consumption of mechanical steering gear systems because of the heavy use of light weight vehicles and the use of conventional technology in this region.
India and China are the global leaders of mechanical steering gear systems and are expected to grow in future. It is followed by the Middle East and African countries which also uses manual steering systems in the light weight vehicles. North America, Latin America, and Europe also have a decent market share of mechanical steering gear systems, but the use of hydraulic and power steering systems are more in this region.
