We produce a range of units which cover almost all
applications that can be thought of within model railways. Click on the

- Gearboxes for
Steam outline
-
- Our gearboxes cover a wide range of applications for steam outline
models from the humble dock shunter to the most prestigious express
locomotive.
-
-
- We combine the choice of an appropriate motor with suitable gear box
to produce a power unit ideally suited to a specific application. Our
gearboxes are precision engineered and employ either simple worm and
wheel, multistage or helical multistage and have ratios ranging from
8.5:1 through to 50:1.
-
-
- With the large number of steam locomotives to choose from it is not
possible to give anything other than general guidance here but we are
always happy to advise you in the selection of the most suitable motor
gearbox combination for your locomotive. A simple phone call, e-mail or
by coming along and seeing us in person at any of the exhibitions we
attend will secure you the required assistance.

- Gearboxes for
Diesel Outline
-
- Developed at the request of Pete Waterman our modified upright is
becoming the choice of discerning modellers and it's available in two
speeds.
-
-
- See the diesel page for other options
-
- Special &
other applications
-
- We carry a range of in-line spur and planetary geared motors which
can be combined with other gearboxes for special applications such as
motorised accessories, turntables etc.
-
- One of our previous projects has been the supply of gearboxes for
surveillance cameras.

- Gearbox
Efficiency
-
-
- Whilst we believe our gearboxes cannot be beaten we make no specific
claims about the efficiency of any of our gearboxes, others will claim
over 75% efficiency for their helical boxes and that worm & wheel
are less than 40% efficient - has any one told
HPC Gears that their
claim for this box can't be true?
