Disc brake WCB

frictionmechanicalemergency

Select from three different models of Airflex® water-cooled disc brakes designed to meet the needs of even the most severe applications. Our advanced design features match your specific application requirements, including high horsepower absorption, continuous slip service, dynamic tensioning, static holding and emergency stopping.​ Better energy dissipation - Improved fluid dynamics​ Continuous slip service - Absorbs and dissipates huge thermal loads Features Robust design eliminates copper cracking​ Self-supporting brake option eliminates costly support brackets​ Split wear spacers for wear adjustment without disassembly Improved fluid dynamics with better energy dissipation​ Even the most severe brake applications are no match for Airflex water-cooled units. With single and multiple disc designs, spring-, air-, and hydraulically applied options and multiple sizes available, you can find an Airflex water-cooled brake to meet the needs of your application.​ Continuous slip service​ All models are designed to absorb and dissipate heavy thermal loads so they can provide continuous slip service all day long.​ Patented piston design​ Single or dual piston designs provide a wider range of applied tension with greater control. Standard single piston elements can be retrofitted with a dual piston powerhead to provide increased control.​ Unique friction couple​ A specially formulated friction material, interfacing with a copper alloy surface, eliminates the stick-slip characteristic associated with ordinary frictional devices. The dynamic coefficient of friction is greater than the static coefficient of friction.
