Centrifugal clutch
Air Start TWIFLEX

  • centrifugal clutch Air Start TWIFLEX
The clutch drum is attached to the prime mover, the hub carrying the flexibly mounted lined shoes forming the driven half coupling. To initiate engagement, the clutch shoes are moved outwards into pressure contact with the rotating drum air thrusters built into the driven half hub.

This starts the driven half rotating, and as it accelerates the centrifugal effect causes the clutch shoe assemblies to press harder against the drum, giving progressively firmer engagement until after a few seconds the starting air pressure can be removed.
