Gear Box / Coupling Flange – Eicher Terra 16 XP (Serrated)
What It Is:
A gearbox coupling flange (serrated type) for the Eicher Terra 16 XP heavy‑duty tipper connects the gearbox output shaft to the propeller/driveshaft assembly, allowing torque from the transmission to be reliably transferred down the driveline. Serrated (“toothed”) faces or splined profiles ensure a positive mechanical engagement, reducing slip and vibration under load.
Application Context – Eicher Terra 16 XP
Model: Eicher Terra 16 XP
Segment: 16 ton GVW heavy duty tipper truck.
Transmission: 6‑speed manual (ET‑60‑S5 or similar heavy duty gearbox).
The flange sits at the gearbox output, bolting onto the gearbox case and mating with the propeller shaft companion flange. Its serrated interface ensures torque flows smoothly and reliably from gearbox → shaft → rear axle.
