Overview
The Dodge Tigear-2 26Q30L56 is a compact right angle worm gear speed reducer engineered for industrial motion control and power transmission applications. Rated for 2 hp input and delivering 1705 in-lb output torque at a 30:1 gear ratio, this reducer combines efficiency and durability in a cast iron housing. The quill input design with left solid A output shaft provides flexible mounting options for machinery requiring precise speed reduction and high torque output.
Key Features
- 30:1 Gear Ratio: Delivers precise speed reduction from 1750 rpm maximum input to 58 rpm maximum output
- High Torque Output: 1705 in-lb torque rating enables demanding load handling
- Right Angle Design: Compact footprint with 2.63 in center distance for efficient space utilization
- Factory-Filled Synthetic Lubricant: Contains a factory-filled synthetic lubricant that runs cooler and eliminates routine oil changes
- Ventless Sealing System: Totally enclosed, ventless sealing system operates effectively with no pressure vent or compression chamber
- Class 30 Gray Iron Housing: Durable construction for sustained industrial operation
