Types Of Howo Gearbox
Two main howo gearbox versions are common on Zambian roads. They match different engine power and hauling needs.
HOWO HW19710 Transmission
The HW19710 is a 10-speed manual unit from the sinotruk gearbox family. It handles heavy torque and works well for mining and construction. Drivers like its smooth shifting even under full load.
HOWO HW13710 Transmission
This sinotruk gearbox assembly has a compact design. It saves fuel on long hauls. Many logistics companies in Zambia choose the HW13710 for its gear ratio spread and reliability.
Gearbox Specifications Comparison
| Gearbox Model | Type | Number of Gears | Torque Capacity (Nm) | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HW19710 | Manual, Synchronized | 10 | 1900-2200 | Heavy hauling, Mining |
| HW13710 | Manual, Synchronized | 10 | 1600-1900 | Long-distance transport |
| HW15710 | Manual, Synchronized | 10 | 1500-1800 | Dump trucks, Mixer trucks |
Both HW19710 and HW13710 are core parts of the sinotruk transmission lineup. They offer long service life in African conditions.
