Worm Gearboxes

This shaft is designed to fit into a worm gearbox and act as an output shaft. You can install it by following these steps:

• Put the keys into the keyways on the shaft.
• Slide the shaft through the gearbox until it's centered inside.
• Slide washers onto both ends of the shaft.
• Put snap rings onto both ends of the shaft so that the washer is between the snap ring and the gearbox (There is a groove at the end of the shaft for the ring to rest inside).

Shaft Couplers

If you need to connect this shaft to a motor or another device with a shaft, you can use a shaft coupler:

Product		Physical Properties
Part Number	Price	Inner Diameter	Material	Coupling Rated Torque	Coupling Rated Speed
TRM4325_0 Jaw Coupling Half 25mm Series 24	$6.85	25 mm	Aluminum	611.8 kg·cm	4000 RPM
TRM4329_0 Jaw Coupling Half 25mm Series 38	$7.40	25 mm	Aluminum	3.3 Mg·cm	4000 RPM

Pulleys and Sprockets

If you're using a rotary system that requires a lot of torque, you may be interested in pulleys and sprockets. By using a two pulleys or sprockets of different sizes, you can increase the gear ratio of the system. Pulleys and sprockets can also be used to transmit rotation over a long distance. For more guidance on building a transmission system, visit our Rotary Motion Guide. Here is a list of our 25mm bore pulleys and sprockets:

Product		Physical Properties
Part Number	Price	Inner Diameter	Number of Teeth
TRM4155_0 #40 Chain Sprocket with 25mm Bore and 20 Teeth	$7.00	25 mm	20
TRM4156_0 #40 Chain Sprocket with 25mm Bore and 40 Teeth	$17.50	25 mm	40
TRM4157_0 #40 Chain Sprocket with 25mm Bore and 60 Teeth	$27.00	25 mm	60

Rotary Bearings

Systems with heavy loads or pulley/sprocket assemblies often put a lot of sideways strain on the shaft. In such a system, you can use rotary bearings to protect and support the shaft:

Product		Physical Properties		Mechanical Properties
Part Number	Price	Inner Diameter	Bearing Type	Static Load	Dynamic Load
TRM4506_0 Flanged Rotary Bearing for 25mm Shaft	$5.25	25 mm	Rotary Shaft (Flanged)	7.9 kN	14 kN
TRM4507_0 Pillow Block Rotary Bearing for 25mm Shaft	$5.75	25 mm	Rotary Shaft (Pillow Block)	7.9 kN	14 kN
