96USB AC Thrustor-Operated Disc Brakes
for Heavy Duty Industrial Applications

200 lb ft to 23,470 lb ft rating

The 96USB is a rugged, ac thrustor operated disc brake with torque ratings from 200 lb-ft (270 Nm) to 23470 lb-ft (31,850 Nm). The torque rating depends upon the size of the thrustor and the diameter of the disc. The brake is designed to be used on cranes, hoists, conveyors, rolling mill drives or other heavy industrial type applications in which a reliable, long lasting brake is required. It can be used very effectively as either a holding, stopping or retarding brake.

Stainless steel bolts and close-tolerance, self-lubricating, maintenance-free bushings are used to keep maintenance requirements low. Brake pad thickness monitoring and brake pad replacement can be accomplished with a minimum of time and effort. Brake pads are asbestos free. The stopping torque is field adjusted down to 50% of full load rating.

The brake is spring set, so removal or loss of power causes the brake to set and stop the motor or driven load. Spring release power is provided by the electro-hydraulic thrustor.

Maximum motor endplay is + / - 1 mm.
