Our complete line of worms and worm gears can be ordered through the EP Equipment Guaranteed Same Day time Shipment System for the quickest delivery possible.
Product Features
90°, nonintersecting shaft applications answer highly specialized power tranny needs.
Our worm gears provide smoothest, quietest kind of gearing.
They provide high-ratio speed reduction in minimal spaces.
Their efficiency is easily increased by reducing ratios.
With some ratios, there is level of resistance to back driving.
Obtainable from 48 DP to 3 DP
Stocked as single, double and quad start configurations
Because the efficiency of a worm gear drive depends upon the business lead angle and number of begins on the worm – and because increased performance is always an objective, the ratio ought to be kept as low as possible. To run correctly, worms and worm gears utilized together must have the same diametral pitch and threads.
Worms & Worm Gears
EP Gear’s worms and worm gears provide an effective answer for power tranny applications requiring high-ratio acceleration reduction in a restricted space using correct angle (90°), non-intersecting shafts. When properly used, worms and worm gears supply the smoothest, quietest type of gearing.
The primary benefit of worm gears is their capability to provide high reduction ratios and correspondingly high torque multiplication. They may also be used as swiftness reducers in low- to moderate-speed applications. And, because their decrease ratio is based on the amount of 
gear teeth only, they are smaller sized than other styles of gears. Like fine-pitch lead screws, worm gears are usually self-locking, which makes them well suited for hoisting and lifting applications.
