Overhung load adaptors with gas nitriding provide corrosion protection

September 24, 2025 By Mary Gannon

Zero-Max has added a unique Gas Nitriding option to protect Overhung Load Adaptor (OHLA) shafts while enhancing overall system performance.

In another unique product offering, Zero-Max is now offering a gas nitriding option to protect its Overhung Load Adaptor (OHLA) shafts while enhancing overall system performance. Because OHLAs are most often used in harsh outdoor environments including exposure to heat, rain, humidity, salt water, dirt and debris, protecting the OHLA shaft can be an important […]

Why use OHLAs for electric mobile machines?

June 14, 2024 By Rachael Pasini

Hydraulic motors and pumps with outward-extending shafts can be connected to various driven components, such as pulleys and gears. Overhung loads created by these connections can exert significant radial and axial forces on the hydraulic unit’s shaft and bearings. Overhung load adapters (OHLAs) provide support for these shafts, reducing the load on the internal bearings […]
