Why Torque Capacity Matters in Heavy-Duty Clutches – Rubflex KB Series

In oilfield and mining equipment, torque capacity is one of the most critical factors when selecting a clutch. Torque determines how much rotational force the clutch can transfer without slipping, ensuring reliable power delivery during heavy-load starts.

A clutch with insufficient torque capacity can cause slippage, overheating, and premature wear, leading to costly downtime. On the other hand, a properly designed clutch ensures smooth engagement, protects machinery from overload, and improves overall efficiency.

The Rubflex KB Mechanical Clutch is specially designed to handle heavy torque demands. With its multi-disc friction plates and high-strength steel housing, it provides stable torque transfer even under shock loads. Fully interchangeable with Airflex® KB series, the Rubflex KB clutch offers a reliable and cost-effective solution for demanding industries.

�� If your operation requires high torque and reliability, Rubflex KB clutches are the right choice for rotary tables, drawworks, crushers, and industrial drives.
