Other Info.

A clutch slipper controls torque for intermittent, continuous or overload slip. It will drive in both directions, slip when torque setting is reached, and resume driving as the load is reduced. Slippers are excellent as continuous drag brakes, protection against accidental or intentional overloads, for "soft starts", slip at end of stroke etc. Torque control in one direction only can be provided by combining a Slipper with a CLUTCH Hub Pak.
The Slipper is a small precision device containing a number of brass plates interfaced with an improved long life friction material. Soft springs maintain pressure on the friction members, assuring constant torque. An adjacent member of your mechanism can often be used as the Slipper housing.

EXAMPLE - the SAS20-6 can dissipate 6 Watts continuously. This translates to:

in lbs @ rpm @ % slip
10

50

100
1 500 100
1 1000 50
1 2000 25

% slip means within 5 mins. max. time period, e.g.
25% = 25s of slip, 75s of rest, not 25/75 mins.
As a rule, slip speed in rpm X torque in in-lbs X duty cycle in % X 0.011 = Watts
