Renold Gears' standard range of SMX heavy-duty, shaft-mounted gearboxes is now available off the shelf for immediate delivery as part of the company's Rapid Response gearbox delivery service. The units feature hardened and profile ground helical gears for maximum power transmission, efficiency, long life and smooth operation. High-capacity, heavy-duty roller bearings ensure problem-free operation and maximum load carrying capacity for a wide range of applications.
The gearbox casings are manufactured from close grain cast iron for robust strength and quiet, vibration-free operation. Both sides are fully machined for face-mounting options and they are interchangeable with Fenner (Eriks), Rexnord, Benzler, Sala and Dodge to enable fast and easy replacement.
Renold's SMX Series is also available with a wide range of non-standard options including enhanced seals on the output and input shafts for use in hostile environments, and a sprag clutch backstop option to prevent drive reversal. The units have a long pedigree coming from the same family as Renold's PM, TW and Carter gearbox ranges, sharing their reputation for quality, reliability and service.
