Summary of Technical Data on Braking Torque and Pressure for Various Disc Models
This document presents detailed technical specifications relating to braking torque (measured in lb.ft) as a function of pressure (psi) and disc diameter (inches) for multiple disc brake models. The data is organized primarily by model series and disc diameter, showing the relationship between applied pressure and resulting torque.
Main Sections and Key Points
1. Pressure vs. Torque for M-Series Discs
- M300 Series: Torque values are provided for disc diameters ranging from 4-3/8 to 7 inches, with pressure values indicated in psi.
- M200 Series: Similar data format with torque and pressure values for discs sized 2 to 4-3/8 inches.
- M400 HS and SH Series: Includes torque data for disc diameters between 40 and 60 inches, with pressure ranging up to 35,000 psi. Specific models such as M400SH60AAAA and M400SH50AAAA are listed with corresponding torque values.
- M500 HS and SH Series: Data for discs sized 10 to 13-3/4 inches, showing braking torque at various pressures.
- M700 SH and M900 SH Series: Larger disc diameters (up to 31-1/8 inches) with torque values at pressures up to 5,000 psi.
2. Pressure vs. Torque for A-Series Discs
- A300 T200 and T300 AS Series: Torque values up to 12,000 lb.ft for disc diameters up to 40 inches, with pressure up to 10,000 psi.
- A400 T400 AS Series: Torque data up to 1,400 lb.ft for discs up to 40 inches diameter.
- A300 T200 SA and A400 T300 SA Series: Braking torque values ranging from 1,000 to 12,000 lb.ft, with disc diameters up to 40 inches.
- A400 T400 SA Series: Torque values provided for discs with diameters up to 40 inches, with pressure values indicated.
- A300 T300 HS and A400 HS Series: Data includes torque values up to 5,000 lb.ft for discs up to 40 inches diameter.
- A300 T300 SH and A400 T300 SH Series: Torque values up to 12,000 lb.ft and 16,000 lb.ft respectively, with disc diameters up to 60 inches.
- A400 T400 SH Series: Highest torque values reaching 16,000 lb.ft for discs up to 60 inches diameter.
3. Data Presentation and Parameters
- Torque is consistently measured in pound-feet (lb.ft).
- Pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (psi).
- Disc diameters are given in inches, ranging from small sizes (~2 inches) to very large discs (up to 60 inches).
- The data is presented in tabular or graphical form correlating pressure and torque for each disc size and model.
Critical Information and Recommendations
- Understanding the relationship between applied pressure and braking torque is essential for selecting the appropriate disc brake model for specific applications.
- Disc diameter significantly influences the achievable braking torque at given pressures.
- Higher series models (e.g., A400 T400 SH) provide higher torque capacities suitable for heavy-duty braking requirements.
- Pressure limits must be respected to avoid damage or failure; maximum pressures vary by model and disc size.
- Consistent units and clear identification of disc sizes and model numbers are crucial for correct interpretation and application of the data.
This summary captures the essential technical relationships and parameters from the document, facilitating informed decisions in brake system design and maintenance.
