About the Flender Cavex 100
Flender gear drives — now part of Siemens — are the European standard for heavy industrial applications. H-series and B-series helical units are found in cement plants, paper mills, and steel facilities worldwide. Cavex worm gear units handle the lighter applications. All Flender units are built to high precision standards and are highly rebuildable.
The Cavex 100 is a worm gear unit with a rated capacity of 0.25–2.2 kW and output torque of 180–630 Nm. Typical operating weight is 12–22 lbs. Mounting configurations include Foot, flange.
Flender units most commonly fail from gear tooth pitting in high-load applications, bearing fatigue, and seal failure in dusty cement plant environments.
When your Flender Cavex 100 fails, downtime costs mount fast. Our standard rebuild turnaround is 8–14 business days with free freight both directions. Emergency 24–72 hour service is available. We publish pricing before teardown — no surprises.
