⭐ Belangrijkste kenmerken en technische voordelen

🔄

FKM Viton High-Temperature Seals

Fluoroelastomer shaft seals rated from -25 °C to +200 °C, maintaining leak-free performance through the extreme seasonal temperature swings encountered in all-weather farming.

🔨

Sub-180 mm Hub Profile

Slim vertical envelope allows close disc spacing for continuous, overlap-free cutting — critical for clean swath formation in thick alfalfa and mixed-grass stands.

🌡

Self-Contained Bearing Cartridges

Pre-loaded, pre-lubricated cartridge bearings drop in for rapid field replacement, slashing unplanned downtime from bearing failures by up to 70%.

🛠

Synthetic PAO Fill, -40 to +150 °C

Factory-filled with polyalphaolefin gear oil maintaining viscosity stability from arctic cold starts to sustained high-temperature tropical operation without degradation.

🔬

Through-Hardened Spur Gear Train

HRC 56-60 alloy steel spur gears designed for the high-impact reversing loads encountered during aggressive rotary tiller soil engagement.

⚖

3× Peak Torque Output Capacity

Oversized output shaft rated for transient torques three times nominal, absorbing the repeated shock loads when tiller blades strike buried rocks and roots.

📚 Gids voor het kiezen van een versnellingsbak

The correct gearbox specification depends on your tractor, implement, and field conditions. Evaluate these factors for the EP-RC51:

📌 Standaardcatalogus versus specificaties op maat
The EP-RC51 is available as a standard catalog item shipping in 3-5 days. If your application requires a non-standard ratio, shaft type, or mounting configuration, our engineering team offers custom designs with 4-6 week lead times. Minimum order quantities may apply.
📌 Output Shaft Type Compatibility
The EP-RC51 features Spline / Taper spline output. Verify your blade hub or implement rotor accepts this shaft type before ordering. We offer multiple output configurations — spline, taper, keyway, and flange — to match virtually any existing installation.
📌 Weight and Mounting Considerations
At 29 Kg, the EP-RC51 is designed for compact and sub-compact tractor implements. Confirm your implement frame and three-point hitch can support this weight plus the weight of the blade assembly. Mounting bolt pattern and orientation should match your existing layout.
📌 Afstemming van de overbrengingsverhouding op de snelheid van de bladpunt
For the EP-RC51 with ratio(s) 1:1.47 / 1:1.93, calculate your required blade tip speed: typically 4,500-5,500 m/min for standard rotary cutters, 3,000-4,000 m/min for heavy brush cutting, and 5,500-6,500 m/min for fine finish mowing. Output RPM = PTO RPM ÷ ratio. Multiply by blade diameter to get tip speed.
📌 Vermogensclassificatie afstemmen op aftakasvermogen (PTO) van de tractor
The EP-RC51 is rated at 30 HP. Always select a gearbox rated at or above your tractor’s maximum PTO horsepower. For shock-load applications (mulching, brush clearing), add a 25-30% safety margin: a 60 HP tractor should use a 75+ HP rated gearbox.

🛠 Installatie- en configuratiehandleiding

  1. Voordat u op vol vermogen gaat werken, doorloop een geleidelijke inloopperiode: 30 minuten op half gas, vervolgens 30 minuten op driekwart gas, voordat u het volledige aftakastoerental inschakelt.
  2. Controleer met een liniaal of de montageplaat van het werktuig vlak is. Eventuele krommingen van meer dan 0,5 mm moeten worden gecorrigeerd voordat de nieuwe versnellingsbak wordt gemonteerd.
  3. Gebruik Nord-Lock-ringen of schroefdraadborgmiddel op alle bevestigingsbouten om losraken door trillingen tijdens gebruik te voorkomen.
  4. Run the gearbox at no load for 5-10 minutes, then shut down and re-check oil level — new seals and bearings often absorb a small amount of initial oil.
  5. Clean the implement mounting surface thoroughly, removing all rust, old gasket material, paint flakes, and debris that could prevent flush contact with the gearbox flange.
  6. Position the gearbox onto the mounting studs or bolt holes, verifying the input shaft faces the tractor PTO and the output shaft aligns with the blade hub or rotor.
  7. Ensure the PTO shaft has at least 50% spline overlap in all operating positions. Inadequate overlap causes rapid spline wear and potential shaft separation.

❓ Veelgestelde vragen

❓ What PTO shaft should I pair with this gearbox?

Use a standard agricultural PTO shaft rated for your tractor HP output with the matching spline profile. We strongly recommend shafts with shear bolt or friction clutch protection to prevent gearbox damage from sudden overloads.

❓ How does your pricing compare to genuine OEM parts?

Our gearboxes use equivalent or superior materials at typically 30-50% less than OEM pricing. Independent testing confirms comparable or better performance and service life. The savings are significant for fleet operators.

❓ What gear oil specification does this gearbox require?

Use SAE 80W-90 or SAE 85W-140 GL-5 extreme-pressure gear oil under normal conditions. For sub-zero climates below -20 °C, a synthetic 75W-90 ensures proper cold-start flow. Always check the sight glass or dipstick before each shift.

❓ Which tractor brands are compatible?

Our gearboxes use standard PTO connections (1 3/8″ 6-spline or 1 3/4″ 20-spline) compatible with virtually every brand — John Deere, Kubota, Massey Ferguson, New Holland, Case IH, Kioti, Mahindra, and more.

❓ Hoeveel lawaai maakt deze versnellingsbak tijdens gebruik?

Onze spiraalvormige tandwieloverbrengingen produceren 72-78 dB(A) op 1 meter afstand onder nominale belasting – aanzienlijk stiller dan alternatieven met rechte tandwieloverbrenging (doorgaans 82-88 dB). Gebruikers merken een merkbare vermindering van het geluid van de tandwielen.

Fitted to my brush hog last season. Over 400 hours and counting — zero leaks, minimal noise. Excellent value for a professional-grade unit.

★★★★☆

📍 Iowa, Verenigde Staten

Running it on a 55-70 HP tractor through rocky paddocks. Handles rocks and rough ground without complaint. Very impressed with the build.
