Boston Gear's 800 Series contains a focused selection of compact, heavy duty helical gear drives that offer long-life performance and simplified maintenance. The 800
Series provides a functional
interchange for SEW Eurodrive
and other European manufacturers' helical gear drives, making it uniquely practical for replacement
applications.



These units combine the best of both chain and belt drives, providing positive power transmission and accurate speeds while requiring little maintenance. Load capacities scale up to 1200 HP at 1750 RPM.



The exclusive use of the involute helicoid thread form on the worm and gear provides for high efficiencies and long service
life. The hardened, ground and polished alloy steel worm develops a smooth, work hardened surface on the bronze gear. For this reason, the worm gears wear in and improve with prolonged service while other gears are wearing out.

Automatic engagement and disengagement
   
Delayed engagement produces a “no load start”
   
No slippage at full running speed
   
Controlled soft-start acceleration
   
100% efficient at rated speed
   
Standard, spring control, and deep pocket models
   
Protection against shock loads during start-up





Up to 8.20 kNm;
72,480 in.lb.

Sure-Flex is a TB Wood's original! Sure-Flex Couplings utilize a rubber (EPDM or Neoprene) or Hytrel™ thermoplastic flex element (sleeve) to transmit torque and accommodate shaft misalignments. Sure-Flex couplings have exceptional torsional flexibility, and the
4-way flexing action absorbs virtually all types of shock, vibration, misalignment, and
end float. Sure-flex couplings are an excellent choice when low cost, high flexibility, vibration damping, and easy installation are primary concerns.

Easy assembly
   
Spacer, bushed hub, and clamping hub designs in stock
   
Flexible design accommodates
misalignment and protects equipment



Up to 4.50 kNm;
39,500 in.lb.

Dura-flex couplings "split-in-half" element design allows for easy element installation/ replacement without moving connected equipment or disturbing the shaft connection. Spacer design can accommodate a large range of shaft spacing with few parts. Patented design minimizes bond stress for long coupling life. Highly flexible and able to accommodate shaft misalignment while minimizing vibration and preventing damage to connected equipment.

Easy to assemble/replace
   
High Misalignment ratings
   
No maintenance/lubrication
   
Part-for-Part interchangeable with industry standard design
   
In-stock versatile spacer design can accommodate many configurations with
few parts
