Airflex air-cooled disc clutches and brakes excel in a wide range of applications. With favorable torque-to-size ratios and options with low-inertia friction disc assemblies, they provide maximum performance in limited spaces.
Full annular friction for higher energy performance and smaller package size compared to calipers
Torque rating - High torque capacity to package size ratio
Flexible design - Spring- or pressure applied, multiple disc units
Air-cooled models available
Floating Housing Brake (FHB) – Completely redesigned disc brake for dragline applications
DBBS brakes – Third generation spring-applied disc brake
DBB brakes – Second generation spring-applied disc brake with low inertia
DBA brake – The original design with 1000’s of installations still in use
DC clutches and brakes – Air-applied design for better torque control
Airflex DBB disc-style brakes are the ideal solution for cyclic applications where heat dissipation is critical, including bottling equipment, power shovels, shears and power presses. Spring-applied and air or hydraulically released, these brakes feature long-wearing, self-lubricating PolyPak seals to eliminate premature twisting failure.
