How to Paint Gearboxes: Seal Protection Tips

2026-03-16T16:50:52-05:00October 15th, 2025|DieQua News, Educational, Product Focus, Videos|

Painting industrial gearboxes is essential for corrosion resistance and long-term durability, but if done improperly, it can compromise a critical component—the shaft seal. Seal failure due to overspray or improper preparation can lead to gearbox oil leaks, contamination, or premature wear that puts your entire system at risk. How can you avoid seal damage when painting a gearbox? This short video from DieQua outlines best practices for painting gearboxes while ensuring seal protection. You’ll learn how to mask critical areas properly, the importance of avoiding direct paint contact with seals, and tips to maintain [...]

Servo Worm Gearheads from DieQua

2025-11-12T20:40:38-06:00January 3rd, 2022|Industry News, Product Focus, Videos|

While most servo applications use inline gear heads, many can benefit from right angle configuration. It allows the motor to be tucked in next to the machine frame, instead of sticking out in the aisle. When talking most gearhead suppliers, all they have to offer is the typical two-stage bevel and planetary design. While that is a good selection in some instances - after all, we offer them too - they are just more expensive than some want to pay. Take a look at our servo worm. It can offer lower backlash in a smaller [...]
