Eaton Airflex FHB Disc Brakes

The Eaton Airflex FHB Disc Brakes represent a groundbreaking advancement in disc brake technology, featuring a patented design that utilizes a floating housing instead of a floating rotor. These spring-applied, air-cooled disc brakes are engineered to deliver over 430,000 lb-in of torque, making them ideal for demanding applications such as surface mining, oilfields, and other heavy-duty industrial machinery. The innovative design of the Eaton Airflex FHB maximizes friction life while allowing for rapid friction replacement, ensuring minimal downtime and enhanced productivity.

Designed with long-wearing organic friction material and a robust, solid-cast rotating disc, these brakes significantly reduce inertia compared to conventional caliper brakes. The fixed hub and rotor design further extends product life by eliminating wear during free-wheeling, while the 360-degree annular disc minimizes maintenance downtime by prolonging the life of friction pads, which are also easier to replace. Additionally, the exclusive shaft lock assembly enhances installation speed and safety, making the Eaton Airflex FHB Disc Brakes a reliable choice for various industrial applications.

The Eaton Airflex FHB Disc Brakes are available in different sizes to accommodate various needs. For instance, the 130FHB model features 32 spring sets, a dynamic torque of 288,000 lb-in, and a maximum RPM of 32,540. It has an engaged length of 17.55 inches (455.8 mm) and a released length of 17.79 inches (451.9 mm). Meanwhile, the 138FHB model offers 36 spring sets, a dynamic torque of 432,900 lb-in, and a maximum RPM of 950. Its engaged length is 18.24 inches (463.3 mm), and its released length is 18.48 inches (469.39 mm). These technical specifications ensure that the Eaton Airflex FHB Disc Brakes can meet the rigorous demands of various industrial environments.
