ZF transmissions can handle every marine gear application you need.

Marine Parts Express offers new and remanufactured ZF gears as well as having a full inventory of ZF parts.  Our on-line schematic section has ZF parts breakdown and we have a page that includes the ZF technical data sheets for each of the transmissions.

ZF Marine Transmissions ($300 million in annual sales) is a subsidiary of the ZF Group ($14 billion in annual sales).  ZF Marine is now the largest supplier of marine transmissions, propellers, surface drives and controls in the world.  In 1995 ZF purchased the Italian- based Hurth Marine Gear which continues to produce the smaller gears under the ZF name.

ZF Marine supplies a full line of single and two speed transmissions from ones used with twenty-seven horsepower engines all the way up to massive transmissions that can handle fourteen thousand horsepower.  This variety allows ZF gears to be used in a variety of different applications and to offer replacements and alternatives to other manufacture’s transmissions.
 
Our representatives can help with gear selection or gear replacement and while many of the ZF gears require special tools and training to repair, we are happy to discuss any problems you are having with your gear and make recommendations.

Please note: While not a requirement it is always better to replace the damper plate (coupler) and the transmission cooler when replacing a gear.
