Multiple Disk Mechanical Clutches Designed for use on industrial equipment. High torque in small size makes them ideally suited for applications where space is a premium and the actuation method needs to be done mechanically.
High torque, compact design
Multiple disk design provides high torque in a small diameter
Low drag torque
Special release spring enables quick disengagement. Both wet and dry types have very low drag torque when the clutch is disengaged.
Small activation force
Thanks to a large lever ratio (and roller designed for sizes larger than 100) activation force is small versus the torque the clutch can transmit.
No thrust load
Force is only required to engage or disengage the clutch. There is no thrust load required to keep the clutch engaged.
Good heat dissipation
The wet clutch option has very good heat dissipation capabilities.
Easy adjustment
Torque is easily adjustable by accessing the torque adjustment nut
Long life
Wet clutches have very little frictional wear and can last a very long time. The friction disc on the dry type clutch has a very large friction area. Both wet and dry friction discs can be serviced if required.
