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.

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.
