Under normal operating conditions, the static friction between the discs transmits full torque. When torque exceeds the spring preload setting, the friction surfaces begin to slip, dissipating excess energy as heat while maintaining a controlled level of torque transfer. This progressive slip characteristic protects both the driveline and the implement from shock loads. The torque setting can be adjusted by changing the spring preload through the bolt tension. The friction linings are replaceable when worn, and the system resets automatically \u2014 there are no consumable bolts or pins to replace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:10px 0;\"><strong>Reset Method:<\/strong> Automatic \u2014 continuous slip and re-engagement<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Suited For:<\/strong> Applications with frequent moderate overloads requiring smooth, progressive protection and adjustable torque settings<\/p>\n<p><!-- Application Scenarios --><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:22px;color:#1a5632;margin-top:35px;border-left:4px solid #e8a020;padding-left:12px;\">Typical Agricultural Application Scenarios<\/h2>\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:16px;margin:15px 0;\">\n<div style=\"flex:1;min-width:280px;border-left:4px solid #e8a020;padding:12px 16px;background:#fff8ed;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#1a5632;margin:0 0 6px 0;\">Rotary Mowers &amp; Flail Mowers<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#555;margin:0;\">Protects the mower gearbox from damage when blades strike hidden rocks, stumps, or metal debris.

As a general rule, select a torque limiter rated at 1.2 to 1.5 times the implement&#8217;s normal peak operating torque.
