Pilotless Design for Improved Performance
The Pilotless® Mechanical PTO eliminates the pilot bearing, which allows for more efficient operation and longer service life. The unique dual spherical roller bearing design enhances the system’s capacity to handle high side loads and eliminates direct loading to the engine’s crankshaft, thereby extending the life of the engine's main bearings.
Increased Side Load Capacity
The design of the Pilotless PTO provides up to 70% more side load capacity than previous generations of PTO products. This makes it ideal for applications that exert heavy side loads, ensuring that your equipment performs efficiently even in the most demanding conditions.
Easy Installation and Maintenance
The simplified assembly process of the Pilotless PTO saves valuable time, as it does not require pilot bearing alignment. With no direct loading to the crankshaft, this system also prevents installation-related damage to the engine’s thrust bearing, further increasing its reliability.
Fits within Existing Equipment Envelopes
Most sizes of the WPT Pilotless® Mechanical PTO are designed to fit within the envelope of previous PTO models, making it a versatile and adaptable option for equipment upgrades and retrofits.
Enhanced Engine Life and Reduced Inventory
The optimized design of the Pilotless PTO helps reduce engine wear, increase uptime, and extend the life of the engine’s main bearings. By reducing the number of components, the Pilotless PTO also helps lower inventory costs and simplifies maintenance.
Multiple Friction Options Available
The Pilotless PTO is available with Standard, HD Molded, and HD Laminated friction options, allowing you to choose the configuration that best meets the demands of your application.
The WPT Pilotless® Mechanical PTO is designed for heavy-duty industrial and construction equipment, including:
