    Torque Loss

    Good afternoon! We have a motor that can produce 1500ft-lbs of torque at 500rpm. We need to be able to reach 2500rpms though. If we use a 5:1 gear ratio how much torque will be lost? Also, this would put a lot of stress on the gears, what type of metals would you use to produce them? Thank...
