Huco Friction Clutch, 8mm Bore 53Ncm / 8903020

2 Plate Adjustable Friction Clutches with Clamp Oldham Coupler, Set Screw ; Clamp Fixings. Friction clutches from Huco Vari-Tork designed with adjustable drag or slip torque. Controlled slip takes place between the hub and housing whenever the load exceeds the set torque. A simple construction, the pressure is brought on to the plates and friction rings by an adjuster acting through a spring and pressure plate. The load can either be connected to the steel inner hub or the aluminium alloy housing. Features and Benefits. " Compact proportions 4 interface styles Set screw or clamp connection Can be used as a torque limiter, tensioning, overrun device". Product Application Information. As a torque limiter, Vari-Tork interrupts continuity between the power source and load when it reaches a pre-determined level. As a tensioning device, Vari-Tork typically maintains tension in a filament or tape winding operation by exerting drag on the feed spool. As an overrun device, Vari-Tork absorbs residual inertia of a motor when the load is braked or reaches a terminal stop.
