The Chelsea 221ZLDAX-A5XE or 221ZLDAXA5XE is a 6-bolt Power Take-Off assembly from the Chelsea 221 Series, designed for low-speed, heavy-duty applications including dump trucks, tow and recovery, and aerial equipment. It uses a wire/cable mechanical shift and mounts to Allison, Eaton/Fuller, Volvo/Mack, Hino, and other compatible transmissions. The 1-1/4" round output shaft with key delivers shaft power of 24 HP at 500 RPM and 48 HP at 1,000 RPM, with an intermittent torque rating in the 201-300 lb-ft range (check application pages for the actual rating for your configuration). The cast iron housing is available in standard or low-profile versions, and greaseable pump shafts help reduce spline fretting and corrosion. Call us to confirm proper fit for your application.

The Chelsea 221 Series PTO features a cast iron housing and tapered cone output shaft bearings for strong load-bearing capability under demanding duty cycles. Tapered output bearings replace needle bearings to handle greater radial and axial loads. The series supports twenty-six output options including a 360-degree rotatable flange, three internal speed ratios, and multiple shift configurations. A self-lube option is available for transmissions that have difficulty delivering lubrication to the PTO. Continuous operation is supported with a 30% de-rating. Typical markets include aerial, vocational and municipal equipment, dump trucks, and tow and recovery. Part number 221ZLDAX-A5XE is also referenced as SP221ZLDAX-A5XE in some catalog systems.
