MT Overrunning Clutches combine high torque, high speed capabilities, easy field repair and low cost -- all in a compact size. With most overrunning clutches, shaft size is a major consideration. Wedge Ramp technology allows for greater bore sizes than comparable size clutches offered by other clutch manufacturers.

Applications

Typical applications include press ink rolls, coal feeders, press feeds, honing machines, speed reducers, bakery equipment and textile machines. Dual-source drives include blowers, pumps and fans.
