Friction torque limiter

A sliding safety coupling where a plate wheel, pulley, or other transmission component is interposed between two friction rings. Upon reaching the set torque, the unit slides to ensure continuity in the transmission without damaging the components. This is the essential solution for cost-effective protection.

• Simple and economical friction torque limiter;
• Suitable for dusty environments; no phase synchronization required;
• Silent overload protection without vibration;
• Protection in both directions of rotation
• Asbestos-free friction discs;
• Simple and precise torque setting by adjusting the locking ring;
• Innovative nominal torque setting based on the “H” dimension allows for immediate calibration.

• Supplied complete with machined and mounted transmission elements (plate wheel, pulley, gear pair);
• Different types of friction discs available for specific applications;
• Connection options include bore and keyway, locking assemblies, or other locking systems;
• Corrosion-resistant surface treatments for special requirements.

• Forming machines;
• Conveyors;
• Automotive industry;
• Agricultural machinery.
• Woodworking machinery

• Protects the gearmotor in case of accidental collision;
• Protects wrapping machine film against excessive tension;
• Absorbs torque spikes without disengaging;

• Protects the gears in case of momentary product jams.
