Design as Sprag Type Freewheel Clutch

NMTG sprag clutches are precisely manufactured with a specially formed cam (retained with a spring) that positively locks the inner and outer races through a wedging effect and transmits torque in one direction. A typical transmission will provide rotary as well as intermittent speeds.

The Sprag clutches get automatic released (because of change the contact point due to specially formed cam) and the unit becomes freewheeling and when the same race is rotated in the opposite direction, These Sprag clutches, often provide the simplest and effective solutions for many applications. In the simplest application, Sprag clutches connect and disconnect two rotating shafts (drive shafts or driven shaft). In these devices, one shaft is typically attached with a prime mover unit and the other shaft provides output power for work.

Suitable for Application having Medium to High Torque Transmission requirements.
