Most shops quote only after your unit is in pieces on their bench. We publish the whole market — new, used, scrap, competitor repair — up front, so you negotiate from strength.
Our network rate beats standard shop pricing by roughly 18–25% on the 3325 Worm, with turnaround 2–3 days shorter — and 24–72 hour emergency rush when the line is down.
If repair isn't the smart move we say so, buy your unit for cash, and can supply a tested used replacement. No other gear shop gives you all three exits.
Industrial Surplus World has bought, sold, and rebuilt Cleveland Gear equipment for decades — steel, rubber lines drives are daily work, not an experiment.
The Cleveland Gear 3325 Worm is a worm gear speed reducer from the Worm reducers, custom worm sets line, rated 3–30 hp across ratios of 5:1–70:1, and most commonly found on steel, rubber lines. Cleveland Gear worm gear speed reducers and custom worm sets serve steel, rubber, and general industry with 100+ years of iron.
When a 3325 Worm fails, the real decision is economic: a new unit lists at $2,400–$6,800 with a 16–30 week factory queue, a tested used unit trades at $960–$4,900 when you can find one, and a standard shop rebuild runs $1,100–$4,100 over 10–15 business days. Our in-house network rate of $860–$3,400 in 8–12 business days beats all of those paths on total cost of downtime — and if the unit is beyond economic repair, its scrap weight alone is worth $27–$68, while we'll pay $120–$1,180 for the core as-is.
Typical failure modes on this family are bearing wear, shaft-seal leakage, and tooth-surface distress from degraded or contaminated oil. A correct rebuild means full teardown, hot-tank cleaning, magnetic-particle inspection of all gearing, verification of bearing-bore tolerances, all-new bearings, seals, shims and gaskets, reassembly to factory clearances, and a loaded run-test with warranty up to 24 months. Done right, it restores full service life at a fraction of replacement cost.
