Disc brake caliper R&H 300.108.04

pneumatic clampingfor heavy-duty applications

This brake caliper is designed for heavy-duty applications. The minimum diameter of the brake disc measures 560 mm, while the minimum thickness is 30 mm. Depending on the size of the brake cylinder, the braking force ranges from 5,000 to 17,000 N at 6 bar. Directly pneumatically applied disc brakes are used in practically every area of mechanical engineering. The actuating force is created here through compressed air, and the brake is released by spring force. Its range of application spans from light uses such as web tension control to highly demanding applications such as holding and service brakes that can have a braking force up to 33,000 N with just one caliper, depending on the air pressure. There are almost no limits to the braking torque that can be generated, which depends on the brake disc diameter and the number of calipers!
