Large-capacity rubber diaphragm | Expands with heat and pressure to minimize water condensation. |
Input and output bearings | Case hardened to provide the highest quality and highest load rating available in the industry. |
Worm gear | High-strength ductile iron provides significantly longer wear life than steel when combined with a cast iron bull gear. |
Tooth design | Industry exclusive 25° tooth angle provides 40% longer life and better reliability in tough conditions compared to normal 14 1/2° tooth designs. |
Largest bull gear neck and keyway | Provides strength in critical load-bearing area. |
Expansion chamber | Cap made of corrosion-resistant cast aluminum; rubber diaphragm allows oil to expand and contract during operation. Vented cap prevents pressure buildup and prevents seals from leaking. |
Threaded endcap | Allows accurate bearing preload to increase bearing life. |
52:1 gear ratio | Fully recessed tooth design keeps oil between engaged gears. |
Bull gear | High-strength cast iron provides the highest load capacity and longest life in the industry. Optional bronze gear is available for extreme conditions. |
Multi-viscosity gearbox oil | Exceeds 85w140 GL5 oil for long gear wear under extreme load conditions. |
