Zero-Max's Torq-Tender Overload Safety couplings protect power transmission components from torque overloads

Zero-Max Torq-Tender Overload Safety couplings are engineered to protect critical rotating power transmission components from torque overloads. Torq-Tenders can be manufactured for systems requiring frequent washdowns.

When a power transmission system’s load exceeds the preset precision-tempered torque spring rating, the Torq-Tender’s drive mechanism pivots out of an engagement slot, disengaging the prime mover from the load. When the overload is removed and the speed is reduced, the Torq-Tender resets itself automatically.

Available in torque ranges from 2 to 3000 in-lbs., Torq-Tenders provide tamper-proof preset torque settings that do not require calibration procedures.

The Torq-Tender can handle up to 1.5 degrees of angular misalignment and a maximum parallel misalignment of 0.005 to 0.015 inches.
