It is important to note that our products are replacement parts, not original parts. If you require original parts, please contact the original supplier.
Product Features
- The casing is made of high-grade FG-260 C.I.
- The gearbox has well-designed heat sinks and a suitable fan to effectively dissipate heat generated.
- The entire design is based on BS 721:1963, with an accuracy level of A.
- The gearbox is designed to be interchangeable with standard gearboxes.
- The worm shaft is made of high-quality surface-hardened steel, which is very precise and ground for better performance.
- The worm wheel is made of extremely high-quality phosphor bronze, with a large cross-section (combining with the hub's rigidity).
- The worm shaft and worm wheel shaft are both mounted on high-quality tapered roller/angle contact bearings to withstand axial thrust and suspended loads.
- With a temperature limit of 90 degrees Celsius and full load, the minimum gear life of all gearboxes is 20,000 hours. The gearbox requires no maintenance and only needs to be checked for oil level every two weeks.
- All worm gearbox transmission ratios are 5:1 to 70:1.
Choosing the Right Worm Gearbox
The selection of the gearbox is done by comparing the actual transmission load with the catalog rated value. However, actual load conditions may vary or fluctuate depending on the application type, and equivalent loads or design power must be considered to deal with the same problem. Therefore, equivalent load = actual load x service factor mechanical rated value and life and/or strength are used to measure capacity, assuming continuous operation for 10 hours per day under uniform load conditions. If the equipment runs more than 10 hours per day, the mechanical service factor should be selected based on the type of prime mover, the number of hours of operation per day, and the load characteristics of the application connected to the equipment to ensure proper gear life. The catalog rated value of the selected equipment should be at least equal to or greater than half of the maximum overload reached during its operation. The service life of the gearbox can be determined by comparing the actual transmission load with the catalog rated value.
- Calculate the required ratio.
- Calculate the design power through load type, working time, and service factor.
- Calculate the output torque.
- Select the device according to the data.
Structure of Worm Reducer
The worm reducer is composed of several parts, and each part plays an important role in the overall function of the reducer.
- The worm gear.
- The worm wheel.
- The worm shaft.
- The bearing.
- The casing.

Possible Problems with Worm Reducers
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Overheating | Excessive load or poor heat dissipation. | Reduce the load or add cooling equipment. |
| Noise | Worn bearings or gears, or lack of lubrication. | Replace worn parts or add lubrication. |
| Vibration | Imbalance or misalignment. | Adjust balance or alignment. |
| Leakage | Worn seals or gaskets. | Replace worn parts. |
| Not working | Electrical issues or mechanical failure. | Check electrical connections or replace faulty parts. |
| Low efficiency | Overload or poor lubrication. | Reduce the load or add lubrication. |
| Worm wear | Excessive use or poor lubrication. | Replace worn parts or add lubrication. |
| Worm wheel wear | Excessive use or poor lubrication. | Replace worn parts or add lubrication. |
Installation of Worm Gearbox
The worm gearbox should be installed firmly to minimize the impact of vibration or overload. Be sure to check if it is aligned and use dowel pins to position the gear correctly in the appropriate position, preferably diagonally. It is essential to use flexible couplings (gear couplings with rubber liners/flange/tire couplings) to improve the performance of the gearbox. The couplings should be aligned to avoid angular and eccentric displacement.
Motors for Worm Gear Reducers
Worm gear reducers and electric motors are closely related and essential components of mechanical equipment. Worm gear reducers are used to reduce speed, while electric motors are used to provide power. Without one or the other, the machinery will not function correctly. Our company offers a variety of electric motors for sale to complement our worm gear reducers, providing our customers with a complete solution for their mechanical needs.

Q&A
Q: How long will the gearbox last?
A: The minimum gear life of all gearboxes is 20,000 hours under full load and a temperature limit of 90 degrees Celsius.
Q: Can the gearbox be used under heavy load conditions?
A: The selection of the gearbox is done by comparing the actual transmission load with the catalog rated value. If the equipment runs more than 10 hours per day, the mechanical service factor should be selected based on the type of prime mover, the number of hours of operation per day, and the load characteristics of the application connected to the equipment to ensure proper gear life.
Q: What should I do if the gearbox overheats?
A: Reduce the load or add cooling equipment to dissipate the heat generated.
