Key Features
- Genuine OEM Gear Tolerancing — Manufactured to Multiquip's original tooth profile and material spec, ensuring correct meshing and load transfer within the drum drive assembly.
- Direct-Mount Replacement — Mounts directly to the existing drum drive position on GBX series units, restoring original engagement without modification to the surrounding hardware.
- Confirmed GBX Series Fitment — Compatible with GBX24S, GBX24B, and GBX12S balloon systems and towable towers.
- Restores Full Drum Drive Performance — A worn or chipped drum gear causes erratic rotation, slipping, or complete drive failure; replacing it with the correct OEM gear brings smooth, consistent drum operation back.
- OEM Part Assurance — As a genuine Multiquip component, A400431701 carries the same part number used in Multiquip service documentation, so you can be confident you are ordering the right gear.
The drum gear is a critical component in the drive train of GBX balloon lighting systems and towable towers, transmitting rotational force from the motor or drive mechanism to the drum assembly. It controls the winding and deployment of cables or lanyards that raise and lower the balloon light. When the gear wears down or loses tooth contact, the drum can slip, bind, or fail to hold position — interrupting operation and potentially causing uncontrolled movement of the light assembly. Replacing a damaged drum gear promptly keeps the drive train functioning as designed and protects the surrounding components from secondary wear.
