Operation

• Friction type heavy duty clutch mechanism engages with air pressure, spring released when air is exhausted
• Torque is linear in response to air pressure applied

Mounting

• Through/Mid Shaft or End of Shaft
• Heavy duty clutch mechanism slides on shaft and is fixed with set screws and a customer supplied key
• Adapter connects to a fully supported, bearing mounted pulley, gear or sprocket
• Anti-rotation arm required to prevent rotation of the air housing
• Heavy duty clutch mechanisms are designed for horizontal mounting. If vertical mounting is required, consult engineering for options
• Note: Heavy Duty Clutch Mechanism DOES NOT support Adapter

Applications

• Heavy duty clutch mechanisms are suitable for cycling applications connecting and disconnecting two fully supported shafts
• Maximum RPM varies by model. Please consult the detail sheets (below). Consult engineering if the intended application exceeds the listed maximum RPM.

Design Features

• Heavy duty clutches are bored to suit up to the maximum shown (US & Metric) for easy installation
• Splined drive and toothed friction discs for heavy duty service
• Machined face and bolt circle on adapter facilitate connection to a bearing mounted pulley or gear
• Available with either high or low* coefficient friction linings for same price
