Used Industrial Gearboxes for Sale
We have dozens of used gears for sale on our website for different applications. Our selection of used industrial gearboxes includes options such as:
- Reducers and increases: Gear reducers and increasers connect the motor to a driven load, allowing you to modify the system’s speed and torque. The pinion drives the gear in reducers, while the gear drives the pinion in increases.
- Helical gears: Helical gears are cylindrical gears with teeth curved into a helix shape. These gears typically have larger total contact ratios to improve noise and vibration levels.
- Parallel shaft: These gear motors reduce a system’s speed. As the name suggests, the speed reducer shaft is on a plane parallel to the motor shaft.
- Lightnin gearboxes: Lightnin gearboxes are popular power sources in wastewater treatment. They are ideal for processes such as stop holding, balance, purification and air circulation.
