Coating/Galvanizing Lines Formsprag overrunning clutches and TB Wood’s elastomeric chemicalresistant couplings are found on a variety of coating and galvanizing lines. Formsprag overrunning clutches are used in threading drives to protect the low speed drives from over speeding when the process is run at full production speeds. In steel processing, low speed drives are used to power the drive rollers when threading the leading edge of a new roll through the process, or after a problem in the line and it has to be restarted. The overrunning clutch will transmit the low speed torque from the threading...
