Big Country Windmills supplies windmills manufactured by The American West Windmill. The 702 model of windmill incorporates various features that include galvanized round wheel arms, galvanized steel helmet, bearings, gears, pinions, pitman arms, Babbitt bearings, buffer device and nodular pinion gears. This windmill has been designed for two strokes and includes pitman arms that facilitate easy shift to the short stroke and increases the pumping depth. Babbitt bearings have nominal friction and can be used for a prolonged period. These bearings have been specifically designed for windmills with multiple sails.
The galvanized steel helmet of the 702 windmill functions by protecting the internal parts from extreme weather conditions. The windmill from Big Country Windmills incorporates a buffer device that protects the windmill from shock during its operation. The automatic regulation feature of the 702 windmill protects it during high windy conditions. Bearings and gears are lubricated with oil on a constant basis, while the upper bearings of the windmill are lubricated with the aid of a large oil ring that picks oil from large gears.
Galvanized round wheel arms of the windmill from Big Country Windmills can be screwed to form a rigid wheel structure without using any type of bolt. The sails of the windmill are available in a galvanized finish and have been properly positioned for efficient power generation even during low wind conditions.
