Desch Planox PP clutches are pneumatically actuated. The design is simple, maintenance-free, and sturdy. PP clutches have a successful track record in applications with high engaging/disengaging frequency. Torque range: 95 to 59,521 lb-ft (130 to 80,700 Nm) Typical applications: Construction machinery, marine drives, energy […]

Airflex’s FHB brake uses a patented floating housing design in place of the usual floating rotor. This air-cooled disc brake is spring applied and pressure released. It’s particularly well suited for heavy-duty industrial applications like those found in surface mining and oilfield machinery. Torque […]

The Desch Lutex LKB combination clutch/brake (C-B-C) has a low moment of inertia and a compact design. The brake is spring applied, and when sufficient air pressure is applied, the brake disengages, engaging the clutch. The LKB series covers most standard clutch/brake mounting arrangements. […]

The Airflex type DC element is smaller than most other type clutches with comparable torque ratings. It has low inertia and is pressure actuated and spring released. Torque range: 10,500 to 2,240,000 lb-in (1,190 to 252,900 Nm) Typical applications: Power presses, tension brakes, unwind […]

Brunel Safety Element (SE) torque limiters are specifically designed to protect very high torque applications from overload. This modular system allows for a virtually unlimited torque capacity. SE clutches operate with no slip and completely disengage when a torque overload occurs. Special units for […]

Airflex’s DBB disc brakes are spring applied and air or hydraulically released. The rotating components’ low inertia makes the DBB ideal for cyclic applications. Torque range: 7,500 to 1,470,000 lb-in (847 to 166,101 Nm) Typical applications: Bottling equipment, conveyors, shears

The Brunel JAB torque limiter can be easily adjusted to your torque setting and is manually reset upon disengagement. During normal operation, there’s no slip, and the torque setting is maintained indefinitely. Special seals are available for dusty operating conditions. Release torque range: 10 […]

Danfoss Airflex DBA disc brakes are spring applied and air or hydraulically released. The brake’s large friction area allows it to absorb and dissipate high energy loads. Lining wear adjustments aren’t required for single disc units, and dual disc units require only one wear […]

Brunel Corporation’s Type JB torque limiters provide instant release at the preset torque. Once the overload releases the clutch, the hub travels one revolution before the clutch automatically re-engages. This makes JB torque limiters perfect for applications where restart must occur in the correct […]

Airflex water-cooled brakes (WCB & WCB2) are disc type, externally cooled units. These brakes can dissipate a large amount of heat and are available in a variety of models and sizes. Both spring-applied and air-applied options are available to suit your application. Torque range: […]
