Product overview
We provide a dynamic range of centrifugal clutches from specialists including Amsbeck. They are engineered to provide a safe, ‘soft-start’ or ‘no-load’ acceleration for your driven machine. Our state-of-the-art centrifugal clutches are engineered to reduce vibrations and utilise peak torque for a more efficient drive system, resulting in lower running costs of your equipment.
Fully automatic, our range of centrifugal clutches can be used in couplings, vee belts, timing belts and chain driven configurations. We also offer a rapid design service and provide high quality, custom-made clutch solutions.
