Freewheel Clutches are one way rotation couplings, transmitting torque in one direction and allow idling (freewheel) in the opposite direction. Sprag type clutches were originally designed to maximize torque capacity for required installation real estate. This engineering target has created clutches with the highest number of sprags per a given diameter in the industry.
We manufactures Sprag type clutches in two different sprag sizes to be used as indexing devices, backstopping clutches or overrunning clutches. Sprag Type Clutches are offered; with races, without races, with and without keyways, or combinations thereof. These combinations of options have opened clutches to fill the needs of a multitude of industries and applications around the world.
