ZF 4460.226.041 锥齿轮组 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 4460.226.041 锥齿轮组 is a precision-engineered OEM genuine component designed for the final drive assembly of heavy-duty construction machinery transmissions. This bevel gear set transfers rotational power from the countershaft to the differential at a specific angle, enabling torque multiplication and smooth directional changes under extreme loads. As a critical element within the drivetrain, the 4460.226.041 ensures that power from the engine is efficiently converted into tractive effort for wheel loaders, dozers, and graders. Manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, this gear set is case-hardened and ground for minimal backlash and maximum surface durability. The SKU 4460.226.041 is a direct replacement for the original factory part, guaranteeing a precise fit and OEM-specified performance in demanding work cycles.

Symptoms of Failure

When the ZF 4460.226.041 锥齿轮组 begins to wear, operators will notice distinct operational issues that indicate imminent failure. Recognizing these signs early can prevent catastrophic drivetrain damage.

• Whining or howling noise during turns: A high-pitched metallic sound when the machine turns under load signals excessive gear tooth wear or incorrect backlash. This is a classic symptom of a failing bevel gear set.
• Vibration in the driveline at low speeds: As the gear teeth lose their proper contact pattern, the transmission will transmit a rhythmic shudder through the chassis, particularly during acceleration from a stop.
• Metallic debris in the transmission oil: When draining the lubricant, finding silver or bronze flakes indicates that the gear set is shedding material. This contamination accelerates wear on bearings and adjacent components.
• Intermittent gear slippage or loss of drive: Worn teeth can cause the gear set to skip under heavy torque, resulting in a sudden loss of forward motion or a jerking sensation during operation.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This 锥齿轮组 is engineered for use in ZF’s heavy-duty powershift transmission series commonly deployed in construction machinery. Based on the part number structure and gear geometry, the 4460.226.041 is compatible with the following transmission models:

• ZF WG180 – Used in mid-size wheel loaders and backhoe loaders.
• ZF WG200 – Found in larger graders and dozers requiring higher torque capacity.
• ZF 4WG-200 – A four-speed variant used in articulated dump trucks.
• ZF 6WG-200 – A six-speed version for high-speed road construction equipment.

Always verify the final drive housing casting number and existing gear ratio before installation. This genuine OEM part ensures exact match to factory specifications for these ZF transmission families.
