Power Transmission in our business includes all components that transmit power from a driver (electric motor, engine etc.) to where the magic happens (conveyors, fans, etc.). This includes gearboxes (we cover these in our Gearbox Center category), couplings, belts & sheaves, chain & sprockets, drive tensioners and clutches & brakes.
When you walk in our door, you can walk away with a complete drive because our inventory of these components is huge. We have over 5700 belts (1483 sizes), over 800 sheaves, over 4000 feet of roller chain, over 1200 sprockets (over 900 sizes) and over 800 coupling hubs and elements.

Drip. Drip. Drip. One of the most annoying sounds you can hear. Hopefully, the next sound you hear is not grinding gears, squealing bearings or the sound of someone slipping in a puddle of oil. In our business, successful sealing means longer bearing, gearing and equipment life.
At Whisler Bearings & Drives we stock over 3000 sizes of oil seals in inch & metric sizes, various materials and lip configurations. That’s over 7000 seals on our shelves ranging in size from ¼” to 10” shaft diameter. In addition, we stock over 150 sizes of Speedi-Sleeves used for repairing grooved and leaking shaft surfaces. Very rarely will you walk into Whisler Bearing needing a seal and end up empty-handed.

As part of the power transmission package, industrial gearboxes serve as a way to reduce speed and increase torque in a drive. Most commonly connected to an electric motor directly or through a coupling or v-belt drive, gearboxes are capable of large ratio reductions that are not easily possible with other means. In the United States, right angle worm gearboxes are popular, as well as shaft mount reducers in the grain and aggregate industry. Increasing in popularity are the helical (in line), helical-worm and helical-bevel gearboxes, which are more common in the rest of the world.
Gearboxes have often been complicated and exasperating to users. Many ratios, input varieties, and output shaft variations have made them virtually impossible to stock. Well, we have good news!
At Whisler Bearings & Drives, we have our own Gearbox Center. We assemble worm gear, helical (inline), helical-worm and helical-bevel gearboxes off our shelf. We stock all the components to assemble gearboxes from 1/4HP to 20HP. We can cover ratios from 3:1 to 3600:1 off the shelf. Our gearboxes are interchangeable with other major manufacturers, so they are a drop-in replacement.

Whisler Bearings & Drives assembles Cone Drive Worm Gearboxes in their Denver facility. These gearboxes are direct interchanges with Baldor, Boston, Browning, Dodge Tigear, Falk, Grove Gear, Leeson, Morse, Ohio Gear, Perfection Gear and Sterling. We are stocking center distances from 1.33” to 3.54” and ratios up to 60:1. We also assemble double reduction gearboxes up to 3600:1 ratio.

We assemble Radicon Model M Helical In Line Gearboxes up to 20HP and ratios from 3.6:1 to 225:1 in Denver. Model M gearboxes are direct drop-ins for SEW Eurodrive, Nord Gear and many other manufacturers. They are available to accommodate standard off the shelf C-Flange Motors. Larger sizes are available to ship within 1-2 days from the factory.
