FGE Series slewing drives
Enclosed hourglass-worm slewing drives with lip seal. 9 models and 56 configurations designed so far, with new designs added often.
Which enclosed drive? Pick the worm type, then the seal. A cup seal is the better sealing arrangement for wet, dusty or washdown conditions.
| Lip seal | Cup seal | |
| Hourglass worm | FGE Series | FGA Series |
| Full-throat worm | FWE Series | FWA Series |
Need it sealed on both the outer and inner faces? The FGB Series adds a second seal to the FGA design.
