    G51A Gear
    The G51A is an economical 51 mm offset spur gearbox suitable for lower torque applications. The wide range of sintered steel gears combinations especially complement brushed motors when speed reduction in required. The G51A is also available in high torque or wide faced gears for increased output loads.

    Features:
    • Maximum Load torque up to 1.24 Nm in the standard model
    • Load increased to 2.12 Nm in the high torque and up to 3.53 in wide face versions
    • Standard bronze bearings
    Optional:
    • Special lubrication for extreme conditions
    • Ball bearings for high radial loads
    • Delrin gears for noise reduction
