  • Air-cooled disc clutches and brakes category image

    Air-cooled disc clutches and brakes

    Danfoss Airflex air-cooled disc clutches and brakes excel in a wide range of applications. With favorable torque-to-size ratios and low-inertia friction disc assemblies, they maximize performance in confined spaces.

  • Caliper disc brakes category image

    Caliper disc brakes

    Our modular caliper disc brakes come in a variety of configurations to meet almost any application’s needs. Both spring- and pressure-applied brakes are available with hydraulic or pneumatic actuation, and a direct-acting hydraulic design is available for heavy-duty applications.

  • Water-cooled brakes category image

    Water-cooled brakes

    Danfoss Airflex water-cooled brakes are designed to meet the needs of even the most extreme applications. Our advanced design features address requirements such as high horsepower absorption, continuous slip service, thermal load dissipation, dynamic tensioning, static holding, and emergency stopping.
