WPWT Universal Speed Cast Iron Worm Gearbox
Right-angle drives delivering power to a horizontal side output — 90 degrees from the input axis — in equipment that must also work across multiple installation orientations require a gearbox combining T-type side output geometry with universal housing versatility. The WPWT Universal Speed Cast Iron Worm Gearbox provides the WPW-series universal body with T-type horizontal side output across 5 shaft direction configurations. Compact right-angle side drives from ratio 1/5 to 1/60 in any installation orientation from a single standard product.

Universal W-Body Structure
The WPW-series universal housing is manufactured as a single FC20+ grey cast iron casting with bore positions, keyway orientations, and oil channels configured for the selected shaft direction. All 5 shaft direction configurations (A/B/C/D/E) use the same casting geometry with specific machining per configuration.
Hardened 20CrMnTi steel worm shaft with case-hardened tooth flanks (55–60 HRC). The worm shaft and its bearings are selected for the specific input orientation of the model — A-type (below), S-type (overhead), or bilateral — ensuring rated bearing life in the correct load direction.
Tin-bronze ZCuSn10Pb1 alloy worm wheel machined to mesh precisely with the hardened worm shaft. The bronze material provides excellent anti-seizure properties and wear-in characteristics for the worm gear mesh.
Output shaft in quenched-and-tempered steel with double-lip oil seals rated for the specific output orientation (horizontal, vertical upward O-type, vertical downward X-type, side T-type, or extended V-type). Seal selection matches the hydrostatic pressure requirements of the installed orientation.
Single-stage oil bath lubrication. Oil fill port, oil gauge, vent plug, and drain plug are positioned for the selected shaft direction configuration. Fill quantities are specified per configuration in the installation guide — do not use generic fill values across configurations.
FC20+ cast iron foot-mount base integrated with the housing casting. Four mounting holes for B3 foot mounting. The base orientation is fixed for the selected shaft direction configuration. For shaft-mount (hollow bore) applications, the torque arm boss provides housing restraint.
Core Features & Benefits
■ Universal W-Body + T-Type Side Output: Right-Angle Drive in Any Orientation
The WPWT provides T-type horizontal side output (90° to input axis) in all 5 WPW shaft direction configurations — compact right-angle drive in any installation orientation from one standard product.
■ T-Type Output: 90-Degree Power Turn in Compact Cast Iron Housing
The T-type output shaft is positioned at 90 degrees to the worm input axis, providing right-angle power transmission in a compact cast iron housing without the bulk and cost of additional bevel stages.
