RA Reducers

The right angle reducer is a secondary worm gear reducer that reduces speed and increases torque to the input of the jack. If motor clearance is an issue, a right angle reducer may be added to most jacks to optimize motor orientation. Right-Angle Reducers are available in two different styles; High Efficiency and Standard Efficiency.
Right Angle Reducers may be installed on the standard ActionJac™ Machine Screw and Ball Screw Jacks listed below at the time of the order and are available with or without brakemotors.


Positions

High Efficiency

The High Efficiency Right-Angle Reducer is a compact, high quality worm gear reducer enclosed in an aluminum casted housing. The reducer mounts directly to the input side of the jack. Motors mount quill-style to a standard NEMA C-face.

  • Non-vented, oil filled, and maintenance free.
  • Rated at 85% or greater efficiency - allowing for a smaller drive and motor when compared with standard efficiency right-angle reducers.
    available in a variety of NEMA motor mounts. Consult the data charts for jack capacity.
  • Ratings given on the chart may differ when installed on Keyed or Anti-Backlash Machine Screw Jack models. Special consideration must be given when installing onto a Double-Clevis Jack due to the additional weight of the reducer. Max input RPM is 1725rpm.

Standard Efficiency

The Standard Efficiency Right-Angle Reducer is a compact, high quality worm gear reducer enclosed in a ductile iron housing. The reducer mounts directly to the input side of the jack.

  • Motors mount quill-style to a standard NEMA C-face. 
  • Consult the data charts for jack capacity when used.
  • Ratings given on the chart may differ when installed on Keyed or Anti-Backlash Machine Screw Jack models. Special consideration must be given when installing onto a Double-Clevis Jack due to the additional weight of the reducer.
