Emmbros Rear and Front Axles have been propelling trucks and four wheel drives down the highways, back roads and rough terrain of the world for more than a decade.
Manufactured by using the finest material like SAE 4340, 4140, 1541 etc; Emmbros axles offer superior strength and durability thus providing better value over the life of the vehicle.
Emmbros' mission is to adapt new and developing technology to drive axle applications, delivering the highest quality performance axles in the industry.
Emmbros uses cold spline rolling technology, which is preferred by the world today as rolled splines are 35% stronger than the cut splines .
We must first understand what are gears to understand Gear Ratio.
Gears are wheels with teeth that transmit power between shafts.
The teeth may be on the edge of the wheels , on the side, or inside the wheel.
To transmit power, a gear on one shaft is meshed with a gear on the other shaft.
To mesh means that the teeth of a gear fit into the spaces between the teeth of another gear.
When one gear turns, Its teeth then force the other gear to turn.
The gear that does the turning is the driving gear.
The gear that is forced to turn is the driven gear.
The relative speed of two meshed gears is determined by the number of teeth in each gear, this is called as Gear Ratio.
If the two meshing gears have the same number of teeth, both the gears will turn at the same speed, which means the ratio is 1:1.
When the driven gear is having more teeth than that of the driving gear, the driven gear turns slowly as compared to the driving gear, which means that the Gear ratio is 2:1.
