Oilfield and mining machinery operate under some of the toughest conditions in the world:
Heavy impact loads
Continuous high-temperature operation
Dust, oil contamination, and vibration
Frequent engagement cycles
Standard clutches often fail under these conditions — but Rubflex PTO clutches are built specifically for them.
Industry Knowledge: The Real Challenges for Heavy-Duty Clutches
Torque rating alone does not determine clutch performance. The real key factors are:
Thermal capacity – ability to withstand repeated engagement heat
Heat dissipation – prevents thermal damage
Structural rigidity – resists deformation under shock loads
Rubflex engineers design PTO clutches with a complete system approach.
Rubflex Product Features:
Reinforced friction systems – high wear resistance and thermal stability
Optimized cooling design – reduces heat build-up
Heavy-duty structural components – impact-resistant and durable
Precise pneumatic control – smooth, controlled engagement
The Result:
Reduced downtime
Lower maintenance costs
Longer equipment operating cycles
Rubflex helps customers improve overall equipment reliability in demanding industries.
