R&M Bearings : Sprag Clutches

We are official distributors for Morse Sprag Clutches

MORSE series sprag clutches use precision cams made of high chrome alloy steel, hardened and honed for accurate shape. A unique finishing process ensures smooth cam surface providing uniform contact with both races for even load distribution and prolonged clutch life. High capacity bearings are used to accommodate radial and axial loads. The clutches are designed to mount directly on through shafts; the torque being transmitted by a matching key provided with each stock bore ; the outer race has a precision ground diameter with tapped holes on each face to enable the fitting of gear, sprockets, pulleys, etc
