TORQUE LIMITERS & COUPLINGS The Morse Torque Limiter is a protection device that limits torque transmittedin a drive, by slipping when the torque exceeds a preset value, due to shock loads, overloads, or machine jams. It automatically re-engages when the overload has passed. Torque Limiters prevent machine damage and costly breakdown time.The Torque Limiter uses spring loaded friction surfaces for its operation; slip torque obtained by adjusting the spring force.With a torque range of 3 to 10,000Nm our standard Torque Limiters can be used with a sprocket, gear, pulley or flange, including our...
