Split Gear
Falk Split
Gear on cement kiln.
Problem: On
every rotation of this split gear vibration occurred because the
hex nuts could not sufficiently hold this application together.
Despite attempts to regularly, sometimes daily, tighten these nuts
with a slug wrench, the vibration continued and resulted in expensive
damage to the brick lining.
 Picture Left: These ST-125s were installed in 45 minutes!
Solution: Once
installed, Superbolt® Torquenuts® eliminated a 3/8" gap
in the teeth, and consistently held this application together through
every rotation, thus eliminating the vibration that was occurring
and the expensive repairs that followed. |
