Prevent machine Breakdowns
The Protek-Sure friction type torque limiting overload protector provides a reliable low cost method of preventing machine breakage and burned out motors. When the driven load exceeds the friction pressure of the non-asbestos clutch facings spring loaded against the pulley, sprocket or gear used in the clutch, the clutch will slip and will not re-engage until the overload is removed. All parts are of standard and proven design. A bronze oil impregnated bearing should be used on the I.D. of the pulley, sprocket or gear for increased life when overloads are frequent. Contact the factory for specials.
