XTB Tension Control Brakes
Unlike other brake designs that can direct heat back into the brake, shaft and bearings, the XTB maximizes heat dissipation by deflecting it away from the brake components. This unique airflow design uses fins on the rotor, hub back and calipers to throw dissipated heat into space, not into the brake or shaft. The design also helps draw cooler air around and over the brake. The new, one-piece lightweight rotor pulls cool air into the brake and draws it over the air hoses so they don’t overheat and crack.
Torque rating: 2290 lb-in – 35,280 lb-in (0.2587 kN-m – 3.986 kN-m)

Typical Application: Can be found on bottler/filler and capper in the food processing industry. Other applications include bulk material handling elevators and bucket conveyors.
Air Engaged Torque Limiters
Air engaged torque limiters are designed to instantly disengage when a machine overload occurs. The trip-torque is easily set, remotely, with an air regulator. The single-position, ball and detent interface assures re-engagement in the same position providing exact timing of two machine components. A proximity sensor detects the overload condition and sends a signal to the air control valve to blocking the air supply to the torque limiter for a quick disconnect.
Torque range: 50 lb-in – 12,000 lb-in
S-Series Shaft Mount Friction Brakes
Split friction facings for easy replacement without brake removal or disassembly. Thru-shaft design can be flange mounted or shaft mounted with a torque pin. Shaft mounted friction brakes are available in inch and metric sizes.
Torque rating: 264 lb-in – 2194 lb-in (29.82 Nm – 248 Nm)
