Learn about the PGW-101 Gearbox
The PGW 101 (formerly known as the GW101) is a high-performance manual, non-geared operator specifically engineered for precision flow control in the most demanding industrial and municipal environments. Designed for direct engagement and rugged, long-term durability, the PGW 101 is the industry-standard solution for sluice gates, valves, and multi-turn equipment. Unlike standard industry operators, the 101 utilizes a 4-3/4″ extended drive nut to provide superior thread engagement and drastically reduced wear cycles.
