Gimbal housing set

A gimbal housing set carries bearings on more than one axis, so bore positions relative to each other matter more than any single size. These are precision parts that are usually machined after casting.

The gimbal housing set in our gallery is high pressure die cast and shown with its assembly. We machine bores and faces in house and can assemble the set to your bill of materials.
