Noncontact-Magnetic Torque Limiters
Using magnetic force instead of friction to transmit torque, these torque limiters won't wear when they slip. Because there's no wear, they give you accurate, repeatable action. Also known as hysteresis clutches, use them to brake, control tension, and prevent torque overload. They are designed to slip during a torque overload while still transmitting the set torque. For example, you can use them to maintain a constant tension while winding and unwinding wire. All are through-shaft torque limiters, so they regulate torque transmission between an input shaft and a mounted component, such as a pulley, sprocket, or gear. Twist the adjustment ring to set the torque limit, then lock the ring into place with the included set screw.
Through-shaft limiters with D-profile shaft let you mount a component directly on the shaft.
