GEARING FOR
UTILITY TRUCKS
Cone Drive delivers precision motion control and high-torque solutions that enhance reliability and performance in utility vehicle applications.
Compact Power for Field-Ready Reliability
Cone Drive’s double enveloping worm gears, slewing drives, and slewing bearings are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the utility truck market. Our double enveloping worm gear technology offers superior torque density, load-holding capability, and shock resistance—making it ideal for stabilizers, winches, and power take-off systems. Complementing this, our slewing drives and slew bearings deliver smooth, controlled rotation for booms, aerial lifts, and utility attachments, ensuring precise positioning and enhanced operator safety.
Designed for durability and minimal maintenance, these solutions perform reliably in harsh environments, helping electric, telecom, and municipal service fleets stay efficient and operational in the field.
