The Shock Guard is ideal in a wide range of settings and is especially suited for more sophisticated applications that may be prone to jams. Users require a consistent and predictable trip point with quick resetting so that production is maintained and each line stays in sync with where it left off. Shock Guard is easy to set and adjust with its built-in meter and indicator having distinct torque setting points for easy verification. The asymmetrical arrangement of balls and pockets allows for same-position resetting. Once the jam or overload is removed, Shock Guard reengages automatically by jogging the outer drive hub. Tsubaki offers a series of four categories of Shock Guard to support all your protection needs.
Manual disengagement feature assists with machine maintenance.
High speed or low speed service, bi-directional rotation.
Disengages at a pre-set torque rating. Protects your equipment against the unexpected.
