Cog vs. Gear: Know the Difference

Shumaila Saeed
By Shumaila Saeed || Updated on December 25, 2023
A cog is a wheel with teeth or notches for engaging with other cogs, while a gear refers to a rotating machine part with cut teeth, designed to mesh with another toothed part to transmit torque.
Cog vs. Gear

Key Differences

A cog is typically a tooth or a notch on a gear or a wheel. These teeth engage with other cogs or similar structures to transmit motion in machinery. A gear, however, refers to the entire wheel or disk fitted with cogs, used in mechanical devices to change speed, torque, and direction of movement.

The design of a cog is critical for the smooth operation of the gear it belongs to, with its size and shape affecting the gear's performance. Gears are designed considering the overall mechanical requirements, including the type and arrangement of cogs, to achieve the desired motion and force.
