Precision machining reduces vibration and improves durability. In addition, ratio increments allow fine-tuning for vessel performance.
Specifications and Materials
Each gear measures 42mm wide and is cut from EN36A steel. The case-hardened surface withstands torque stress and resists fatigue. As a result, these gears deliver long-term stability even in heavy-duty marine applications. Furthermore, the precision cutting process maintains uniform tooth profiles across all ratio options.

Compatibility and Fitment
These gears are designed for Argo V-Drive gearboxes with billet cases. Variants include AM2058 (58%), AM2062 (62%), AM2070 (70%), and AM2074 (74%). Consequently, engineers and boat owners can select the correct ratio to match acceleration, cruising efficiency, or load requirements.
Compliance and Safety
Follow gearbox manufacturer instructions for installation. Always wear gloves and safety glasses during handling. In addition, torque bolts correctly and lubricate according to marine gearbox standards.
Marine Applications
Workboats, high-performance vessels, and cruisers all benefit from ratio tuning with 58–74% gears. For example, a 58% gear improves long-range fuel efficiency, while a 74% gear delivers stronger acceleration and towing capacity. Therefore, these gears give owners flexibility to optimise marine drivetrains for different operating conditions.
Why Choose Argomarine
Argomarine combines EN36A steel with precision machining to produce gears that last under demanding marine use. Furthermore, the wide ratio range provides flexibility for custom setups. When reliability, strength, and performance matter, Argomarine gears remain a trusted choice.
