J.A. Reinhardt manufactures precision aluminum dip-brazed housings for numerous industries, including the aerospace and telecommunications industries. It is a world leader in the fabrication of aluminum beryllium and beryllium products. In 1947, Jack and Bob Reinhardt returned home after years of service in the United States Army. With a bank loan, machinery was moved into the basement of the family home and the Reinhardt brothers began manufacturing engraved signs for local resorts and banks. By 1950, the Reinhardt Company had expanded to a 2,400-square-foot building and was supplying engraved components to major aircraft manufacturers. J.A. Reinhardt has two manufacturing facilities and is owned by a second generation of Reinhardts. The company has developed expertise in a variety of manufacturing processes, including aluminum dip brazing, precision machining and sheet metal fabrication, TIG and MIG welding, aluminum beryllium and beryllium machining and fabrication and electromechanical assembly.

WALTER V-Drives Walter V-Drives are precision gear drives which allow inboard engines to be placed in the stern ( rear ) of a boat for greater safety, better handling, increased space, reduced drag, lower bow rise, shallower draft and less maintenance. The simple rugged design -- made in the USA -- has been proven in service for more than 60 years ! The Walter V-Drive enables the propeller to be tucked under the hull in front of the rudder ( below left ) -- instead of hanging off the stern next to the swim platform as with a sterndrive or inboard/outboard ( below right ). This safety feature is important on small recreational runabouts designed for the water sports enthusiast and his / her family, especially with an inexperienced captain or small children. Q - U - I - E - T design features time-tested precision-ground helical gears ( same manufacturing process as aircraft gearing ) for smooth and quiet operation. The small vertical offset allows the engine to be mounted lower in the boat resulting in a lower the center of gravity. This lower center of gravity greatly enhances boat handling, tracking and stability. Walter V-Drives are available in Direct Mounted and Remote Mounted models, in a wide variety of sizes -- each with numerous standard gear ratios and V-angles -- to accommodate nearly every application on runabouts, wakeboard boats, houseboats, cruisers and fishing boats. Remote-Mounted models ( also known as "Independently-Mounted" ) can be positioned a few inches or several feet away from the transmission, allowing the boat designer a great variety of engine placements. The remote mounted V-Drive, securely fastened to the hull stringers with its own adjustable mounting brackets and thrust bearing, allows the engine to be soft mounted. A flexible joint assembly, splined connecting shaft and self-aligning bearing isolates engine movement from the propeller shaft resulting in less noise and vibration being transmitted through the hull -- especially useful in diesel engine applications. Walter V-Drives have proven their reliability with more than 60 years in the field. In addition to the highest quality precision ground helical gears made from the finest alloy steels, Walter V-Drives are manufactured with rugged tapered roller bearings, one piece main housings for vibration dampening and accurate gear alignment, self-reversing bi-directional oil pump to force feed lubrication to all internal components and high capacity water-jacketed cooling to reduce operating temperatures and increase life. There is no substitute for time-tested reliability !
