This configuration is the natural choice when the drive source is a chain sprocket connected to a gearmotor, engine, or line shaft; a belt pulley driven from a central power source; a hydraulic motor with a shaft output; or any other non-IEC driving arrangement. In Australian agriculture, the NRV040 is commonly used in grain-cleaning machinery, feed-mill conveyor drives, and fodder-processing equipment where PTO-driven chain systems are the established standard. In industrial settings, it drives custom automation stages, reciprocating conveyor drives, and batch-mixing equipment in food and chemical plants where the machine builder&#8217;s layout places the power source at a shaft rather than an IEC motor face. With the same 3,118 N&middot;m maximum output torque as the NMRV040, the NRV040 delivers full industrial-grade performance in any drive arrangement.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"

shaft specification for the NRV040?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"color:#3A3A3A;font-size:clamp(13px,1.8vw,16px);line-height:1.7;margin-top:10px;\">The NRV040 input shaft is a solid keyed shaft, 14 mm h6 diameter with a standard metric key. The input shaft protrudes from both sides of the housing (bilateral shaft configuration), allowing drive from either end for flexible installation.  Confirm the bilateral or single-end shaft requirement when ordering.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #D8DCE3;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:10px;padding:3%;\">\n<summary style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#1B3F6E;font-size:clamp(14px,2vw,17px);cursor:pointer;\">What is the maximum overhung load on the NRV040 input shaft?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"color:#3A3A3A;font-size:clamp(13px,1.8vw,16px);line-height:1.7;margin-top:10px;\">The maximum allowable radial load on the NRV040 input shaft (Fr max) is 1,830 N, measured at the mid-point of the shaft extension. For chain or belt drives, calculate the actual overhung load from the chain\/belt tension and compare against this limit to avoid premature bearing wear.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #D8DCE3;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:10px;padding:3%;\">\n<summary style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#1B3F6E;font-size:clamp(14px,2vw,17px);cursor:pointer;\">Can the NRV040 be used as a speed increaser (output drives the input)?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"color:#3A3A3A;font-size:clamp(13px,1.8vw,16px);line-height:1.7;margin-top:10px;\">Technically the worm gear will transmit power in reverse at low ratios (i=5&ndash;20, efficiency above 0.5) but worm gear efficiency drops rapidly in back-drive mode. For speed-increaser applications, consult our engineering team for a dedicated back-drive analysis.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #D8DCE3;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:10px;padding:3%;\">\n<summary style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#1B3F6E;font-size:clamp(14px,2vw,17px);cursor:pointer;\">How does the NRV040 handle chain-drive input radial loading?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"color:#3A3A3A;font-size:clamp(13px,1.8vw,16px);line-height:1.7;margin-top:10px;\">The NRV040 input shaft bearings are rated for Fr max = 1,830 N at the mid-shaft point. Mount the chain sprocket as close to the housing face as possible to minimise the bending moment. Use a duplex or triplex chain to reduce tension for equivalent power, further reducing the overhung load.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details style=\"border:1px solid #D8DCE3;border-radius:6px;margin-bottom:10px;padding:3%;\">\n<summary style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#1B3F6E;font-size:clamp(14px,2vw,17px);cursor:pointer;\">Is the NRV040 available with a double-ended output shaft (SZ)?<\/summary>\n<p style=\"color:#3A3A3A;font-size:clamp(13px,1.8vw,16px);line-height:1.7;margin-top:10px;\">Yes. The SZ double-ended output shaft option is available for the NRV040, providing output shaft extensions on both sides of the housing. This is useful for driving two loads simultaneously or for attaching a position encoder on the secondary output shaft end.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\n    \"@context\": \"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\n    \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n    \"mainEntity\": [\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"NRV040 input shaft specification?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"Solid keyed 14mm h6, bilateral dual-end standard; confirm single vs double end on order.\"\n            }\n        },\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"Max overhung load on input shaft?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"Fr max = 1,830 N at mid-shaft; mount sprocket\\\/pulley close to housing.\"\n            }\n        },\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"Speed increaser use?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"Possible at i=5-20 with efficiency above 0.5; consult engineering for back-drive analysis.\"\n            }\n        },\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"Chain-drive radial loading?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"Mount sprocket close to housing; use duplex\\\/triplex chain to reduce tension.\"\n            }\n        },\n        {\n            \"@type\": \"Question\",\n            \"name\": \"SZ double output shaft available?\",\n            \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n                \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n                \"text\": \"Yes, dual output shaft for two loads or encoder attachment.\"\n            }\n        }\n    ]\n}<\/script><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color:#1B3F6E;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:clamp(18px,2.5vw,24px);border-left:4px solid #E8A020;padding-left:12px;margin-top:32px;\">&#11088; Customer Reviews<\/h2>\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:16px;margin-top:16px;\">\n<div style=\"width:100%;max-width:400px;box-sizing:border-box;background:#fff;border:1px solid #D8DCE3;border-radius:8px;padding:3%;\">\n<p style=\"font-size:clamp(15px,2vw,18px);color:#E8A020;margin:0;\">&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;&#9733;<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-style:italic;color:#3A3A3A;font-size:clamp(13px,1.8vw,15px);line-height:1.7;\">&ldquo;We use the NRV040 on our feed-mill hammer mill product auger, chain-driven from the mill&#8217;s main shaft.
