The Pinion Template measures the wear on pinion teeth and evaluates backlash, which is the clearance between the mating teeth of a gear pair. Proper measurement of parameters is to maintain the efficiency and longevity of the gear system. By using the Pinion Template, operators and maintenance personnel can detect excessive wear and improper backlash, which could lead to gear failure.Attributes:• Provide to check gear tooth wear and alignment.• Template provides a quick measurement reading.• Provides quick and reliable wear assessments. Applications: The Pinion Template is employed during the maintenance of hoist pinion gears, within the hoist assembly of equipment to measure and evaluate tooth wear and backlash.
