For more than 45 years, Lawler Gear has been a trusted name in custom gear manufacturing services for the Kansas City area. Our team understands that no two projects are the same. That’s why every gear we produce is designed with care, precision, and your specific requirements in mind.
Whether you’re replacing a single component or gearing up for a full production run, our team has the expertise, technology, and dedication to deliver reliable results on time and within your budget.
Standard, off-the-shelf gears may work in some cases, but when precision and performance matter, nothing compares to a custom-built solution. Custom gears are designed to match your equipment, environment, and performance requirements. This means:
Think about it this way: off-the-shelf gears are like shoes off the rack. They might fit, but not perfectly. A custom gear is more like a pair made to measure. It’s tailored for the job, and that makes all the difference when your business depends on reliability.
We manufacture a wide variety of gears and components to meet the needs of industries across the Midwest:
Every gear we make is tailored to your specifications and is made with high-quality materials like alloy steel, stainless steel, and more. By using the perfect material for your specific needs, we deliver gears that can stand up to even the most demanding conditions.
Our manufacturing process is designed to take the guesswork out of gear production. It starts with collaboration. We sit down with you to understand not just what kind of gear you need, but how it will be used, what it needs to withstand, and how it fits into your bigger system.
This proactive approach saves you both time and money. Once the design is finalized, we move into prototyping, testing, and finally full production. At every stage, you can expect open communication and transparency. We know your equipment is vital to your operation, and our goal is to give you complete confidence in the parts we deliver.

Quality is at the heart of everything we do. At our Lee’s Summit custom gear manufacturing facility, every gear passes through multiple levels of inspection to ensure consistency, accuracy, and durability. Every gear is built to AGMA, ISO, and DIN standards, and we back up our process with advanced inspection equipment that can verify even the most complex gear geometries.
Each gear is inspected multiple times throughout the manufacturing process, from raw material to finished product. That attention to detail has made us a go-to resource for businesses that can’t afford to compromise on quality.
Customers choose us time and again for their custom gear manufacturing needs because we combine experience, technology, and a customer-first mindset.
With more than four decades of experience, we’ve solved challenges for nearly every type of gear application (and we’re ready for more). Our team is approachable, responsive, and dedicated to getting the job done right.
