AquaMaKKs Water Cooled Clutches & Brakes
Air, hydraulic, or spring set actuated and water cooled design, featuring copper wear plates optimized for heavy-duty continuous slip tension applications.
AquaMaKKs™ consist of a series of alternating friction discs and water jackets. Torque is transmitted by applying axial force from the pneumatic, hydraulic, or spring set actuator. Copper wear plates are used for excellent heat dissipation.
AquaMaKKs provides accurate torque control for constant tensioning and are perfectly suited for applications in oil and gas, metal processing and forming, forestry, and marine deck machinery.
Features
- Durable air tube design with high strength reinforced neoprene air-tubes, offering longer service life.
- Water channels for balanced water flow for the highest thermal capacity.
- Long-lasting friction material with minimal wear on mating copper.
- Copper alloy wear plates enable higher heat transfer than any other metals.
- Hub spline provides perfect alignment of rotating discs.
- External air & water connections.
- Release springs ensure complete disengagement.
- Adjustment for wear is easily accomplished by removing shims without any unit disassembly.
- Unique torque pin column arrangement provides structural integrity of case.
- Open case design with covers for safe, simple, visual inspection and easy maintenance.
- The standard AquaMaKKs design incorporates premium materials and finishes suitable for marine deck environments. No optional salt water corrosion protection is required.
