Slipping Hubs & Slipping clutches

DESCH slipping hubs are holding , frictional safety clutches. Due to high quality materials, they achieve a high performance. The torque is precisely adjustable. The slipping hubs are optimized to use in combination with pulleys. If the defined torque will be increase, the clutch slips and protects the drive train from damages.

Overload protection up to 50,000 Nm

A defined torque is generated by the permanently preloaded pressure spring columns. If the defined torque is increased, the Planox® clutch type PTF slips and protects the drive train from damages. The upcoming wear can be automatically compensated by the pressure springs and can be also readjusted, if necessary.

Slipping torque: 500 Nm to 5,000 Nm
Speed: up to 1,500 rpm

A defined torque is generated by the permanently preloaded compression spring columns. If the defined torque is increased, the Lutex® LRK clutch slips and protects the drive train from damages. The upcoming wear can be automatically compensated by the pressure springs and can be also readjusted, if necessary. The clutch is designed for use in oil. Due to the permanent oil lubrication, the couplings have very low wear and achieve a long service life time and longer maintenance intervals.

Slipping torque: 250 Nm to 15,000 Nm
Speed: up to 3,000 rpm
