Electromagnetic clutches and brakes built with a one piece solid forged rotor means no possibility of internal parts separation. The rotors also have an even wall thickness around the coil which results in optimum flux distribution, maximising torque.

Forged machined pulley: all models in this section use a heavy duty machined pulley. A stronger pulley resists damage due to abusive environments. Bi-directional: higher torque units are bi-directional. Lower torque units need to have direction of rotation noted. Static Torque Range: 78 to 2033 Nm. Voltage: 12/24 Input: V-belt, Hub (U-joint) Bore: Straight, Taper, Spline Weight: 3.18 to 79.83 kg.

Lead wire or terminal: depending upon model and OEM preference, units can either come with a lead wire, wire protector and terminal, or have a built-in terminal. Reduced burnishing time: reduced lighter duty units use a coating on the clutch face that significantly reduces burnishing time. Higher torque units come pre-burnished to increase out of box torque. Heavy duty pulleys: all models use a heavy duty roll formed or machined steel pulley. A stronger pulley resists damage due to abusive environments. Static Torque Range:  122 to 542 Nm. Volts/Watts: 12/40 to 12/68 Maximum RPM: 3600 Bore: 1, 11/8, 11/4, 17/16 inches Output: Hub, Pulley Ref. Pitch Dia.: 2.75 to 7.72 inches Weight: 4 to 9 kg.
