Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications for Steel Water Cooled Brakes (WCBs) designed for high-heat applications such as coil processors and high-cycle press/shear lines. These brakes feature a unique steel water jacket design that enhances heat transfer capabilities, allowing for continuous slip applications.
Specifications: The document lists various models of Steel WCBs with specifications including torque rating, maximum speed, heat dissipation capacity, water flow requirements, weight, inertia, lining area, and bore range. The models range from 106 to 330H, with torque ratings from 3,380 lbf∙in (382 N∙m) to 811,000 lbf∙in (91,600 N∙m).
Key Features:
  • High duty cycle
  • Maximum heat transfer
  • Predictable preventative maintenance
  • Durable steel water jacket design
  • Low-inertia drive plate design
Mounting Dimensions: The document provides both imperial and metric mounting dimensions for each model, including hole circle diameter, quantity, and coolant port specifications.
Additional Information: The document advises consulting WPT Application Engineering for application assistance, service factors, specifications, and detailed drawings/3D models. It also notes that dynamic (slipping) torque is 75% of the static torque and larger bore sizes are available upon request.

Steel Water Cooled Brake-1

High duty cycle Maximum heat transfer Predictable preventative maintenance Durable steel water jacket design Low-inertia drive plate design WPT Steel Water Cooled Brakes (Steel WCBs) are designed for high-heat applications, such as coil processors and high-cycle press / shear lines. The unique design of the steel water jackets allows for the rapid transfer of heat to an external cooler or recirculation system. This increased heat transfer capabilities allow the Steel WCB to operate in continuous slip applications. WPT’s Steel WCBs are available in 1, 2, or 3 plate construction with diameters ranging from 6 through 30 inches.
