Spring applied pneumatically released brakes can be conveniently hooked up to shop air supplies or powered by stand-alone compressors. This brake has convenient features such as automatic pad-wear adjustment, variable torque adjustment, quick-change pads, modular design and easy maintenance.
Spring applied calipers feature a hand knob for adjustment of spring force, providing an effective and economic solution for light drag or tension brakes where hand setting can give adequate braking control. Lever action models can interface with a variety of standard actuators.
Like every Twiflex caliper, they feature easy friction pad replacement and simple mounting. A range of master cylinders including air/hydraulic pressure intensifiers are available, making them ideally suited for marine applications.
