Roller Type freewheel clutches are equipped with cylindrical rollers as clamping elements. The rollers engage between the contact surface of the outer race and the clamping surface of the inner race in one direction of rotation blocking this direction. They are free in the opposite direction of rotation. Compression springs acting on the rollers by thrust pins ensure the clamping readiness.

Provide the simplest and lowest cost solutions for many applications, comparatively to clutches based on the ratchet and pawl type. Suitable for Application having Low to Medium Torque Transmission requirement.
