Our girth gears (also known as gear rings or bull gears) are the primary drive components for rotary kilns, ball mills, and industrial dryers. Manufactured from high-quality cast steel such as ZG45 and ZG42CrMo, our girth gears feature precise tooth profiles machined on large-capacity gear hobbing machines to ensure smooth, reliable power transmission under continuous heavy loads.
