HFB & VFB Series
Horizontal Fan Backstops/Vertical Fan Backstops

HFB & VFB backstops have Sprag clutch technology with high inner race overrunning speed, are ball bearing supported and protected with integral lip seals. The clutch housing is prevented from rotating with a torque arm and is mounted on a stub shaft with a locking ring for easy mounting. Clutches are selected by shaft size and torque requirement.
