Air Engaged Clutches - Through Shaft

Air Engaged Clutches – Through Shaft

Through Shaft Bored, Pilot Mount Friction Clutches

Function: Connect, Disconnect (Cycling Applications)
Drive Arrangement: Pilot Mounted Component to Shaft or Shaft to Pilot Mounted Component

Operation

  • Air pressure compresses drive and friction discs to produce torque.
  • Release springs provide positive disengagement when air is exhausted.
  • Torque is linear in response to air pressure applied.

Mounting

  • Through/Mid Shaft or End Shaft.
  • Friction clutch slides on shaft and is fixed with set screws and a customer supplied key.
  • Anti-rotation arm required to prevent rotation of the air housing.
  • Friction clutches are designed for horizontal mounting. If vertical mounting is required, consult engineering for options.

Applications

  • Friction clutches are suitable for Connect/Disconnect and Cycling applications.
  • Maximum RPM varies by model. Please consult the detail sheets (below). Consult engineering if the intended application exceeds the listed maximum RPM.

Design Features

  • Industrial friction clutches are bored to suit up to the maximum shown (US & Metric) for easy installation.
  • Low coefficient friction lining versions are available for applications requiring slip or a narrower torque range. Contact engineering for details.
  • Machined pilot for easy mounting of pulley or sprocket.
