Reliable and high quality stock gears

KHK gears from R. A. Rodriguez are available in over 7000 types in 36 categories and most are supplied ex-stock. Even specials and modified gears carry a short lead time.

The standard KHK product range includes hardened and stainless steel gears and racks, injection moulded spur and bevel gears and spiral bevel gears. Every item in the range is a reliable and high quality product that represents excellent value for money. These characteristics, in combination with R. A. Rodriguez engineering support, has led to the KHK brand becoming very popular in the UK. Indeed the UK has become the second largest export market for KHK gears behind North America. This success has resulted in the Japanese manufacturer KHK seeking the help of R. A. Rodriguez to replicate this performance in the wider Europe. As a result, in November last year, the Letchworth-based company became KHK master distributor for Europe. So how does this new appointment benefit European manufacturers including those in the UK? Quite simply it ensures ready availability of products from local stocks, a wider choice of options and even keener prices. Specifiers are also be able to take advantage of greater flexibility as lower cost of shipment justifies orders for smaller batch sizes and even one-offs. Speedier delivery is another advantage of this new arrangement. R. A. Rodriguez now has KHK distributors under its command in Scandinavia, Germany, France, Italy and Spain but ultimately its network will cover the whole of continental Europe. For a comprehensive guide to the extensive KHK range, the 3010 catalogue is now freely available. This latest edition of the company's master catalogue contains 500 pages of stock gear types and variants, several of which are new to the range. Many new sizes, both larger and smaller have also been added. Click here for more information
