self_locking¶

property WormGear.self_locking: bool

Whether the WormGear cannot be moved by the mating WormWheel.

The gear mating can be self-locking if the amount of friction is high enough with respect to the gear pressure and helix angles.

If the mating is self-locking, then the WormGear cannot be moved by the mating WormWheel.

To set this property use add_worm_gear_mating.
