Lutex® - HK and HK-E - Wet-running Multi-disc Clutches
Compact Clutch Solutions for Maximum Torque
The wet-running disc clutches of the Lutex® HK and HK-E series by Nidec DESCH are the perfect choice for marine drives requiring secure torque transmission in confined spaces. These hydraulically actuated clutches feature oil-cooled discs with a durable steel/sinter-bronze friction pairing, ensuring virtually wear-free operation.
A key advantage is the self-adjusting piston, which compensates for wear automatically, eliminating the need for manual adjustment and enhancing reliability and efficiency.
The Lutex® HK series is designed for maximum torque in minimal space, offering 100% interchangeability with existing clutch solutions. The Lutex® HK-E series, on the other hand, is ideal for high-speed applications with large shaft diameters. It also allows for smaller clutch sizes to be used without sacrificing performance when bore diameter previously dictated the size.
With Lutex® HK and HK-E, Nidec DESCH delivers reliable and space-saving clutch solutions for the most demanding maritime applications.
