Boston Gear 710-40-G Speed Reducer 40:1 Indirect Drive transmission fluid

Speed Reducer 40:1 Indirect Drive

The Boston Gear 710-40-G is a worm-gear speed reducer designed for power-transmission applications requiring a fixed 40:1 reduction ratio. It accepts an indirect-drive input and delivers a maximum output speed of 44 RPM. The cast-iron housing with powder-coated epoxy finish houses hardened and ground steel gears on tapered roller bearings. This unit suits original-equipment builds or maintenance replacement where those exact parameters match the drivetrain design.

Gear Ratio 40:1 and Torque 148 in-lb

The single specification that determines fit is the 40:1 gear ratio combined with a maximum output torque of 148 in-lb at 0.16 hp input. If the driven equipment demands a different reduction or higher torque capacity, this reducer will not meet the requirement. Overhung load capacity is rated at 150 lb on the output shaft. Verify the shaft centreline height of 1.31 in and rotation direction needs against your layout before specifying.

California Proposition 65 Compliance Notice
