Extended Working Life
Von Ruden’s Right Angle Gearboxes are engineered for long-term performance and durability. Every component is chosen to maximize value and reliability:
- Press-fit gears and bearings ensure superior rigidity and performance.
- Precisely shimmed with metal (never paper or plastic) for consistent backlash.
- Tapered roller bearings (not ball bearings) used throughout for greater load capacity.
- Aluminum end caps and pinion housings (on most models) improve heat dissipation.
- Gears are precision-cut from 8620 steel, then carburized and hardened for strength.
- Spring-loaded double-lip shaft seals keep oil in and contaminants out.
- Seal areas on all shafts are ground and burnished to reduce wear and extend service life.
The result: gearboxes built to withstand the toughest applications with extended working life and consistent performance.
