"Shaft length > inner race width"...Please prepare a set collar for adjustment and fix it with the end plate.

"Shaft length < inner race width"...Fix with a stepped end plate.
However, please be careful with the key pressure, so please check in advance.

The standard shaft length varies depending on the series, so please contact us for details.

When torque is applied to a Cam Clutch in the direction of engagement, there is no backlash and it engages instantly.

When torque is applied to a cam clutch, elastic deformation occurs in the cam, inner race, and outer race, resulting in a difference in the rotation angle between inner race and outer race.

This difference in rotation angle is called windup.

The windup increases in proportion to the load torque, and when the load on the Cam Clutch is removed, the windup returns to zero.

The bearings that keep outer race concentric will wear out and heat up, shortening their lifespan.

There are also series without bearings, which can lead to internal damage.

Therefore, if a thrust load is applied to the Cam Clutch, please prepare a separate device to bear the thrust load.

Cam clutches cannot be used on vertical shafts because grease and oil will be concentrated on the bottom side, resulting in poor lubrication.

Please contact us if you wish to mount the product on a vertical or inclined axis.

Please follow the amount of grease specified in the instruction manual.

If there is insufficient lubrication, the lubrication will deteriorate and the lubricant will reach a premature end of life. Conversely, if there is too much lubrication, it may hinder the movement of the cam and cause it to not mesh properly.

Use kerosene or similar to remove the old grease from inside before refilling with new grease.

To prevent rust on cast and welded parts, we apply a lacquer primer (red rust) undercoat.

Apply a finishing coat according to the usage environment.

Even if you fill the tank up, there will be no slippage.

However, depending on the conditions of use, it may cause heat generation or oil leakage.

The maximum rotational speed should be the same as the maximum idling rotational speed of outer race.

If the rotation speed increases any further, the grease at the contact point between inner race and cam will run out, causing problems such as abnormal heat generation and abnormal wear when the bearing is idling.

The cam clutch will lose its concentricity, and uneven load will be applied, causing the cam to rotate while being pressed down by the inner and outer outer race, which may result in the clutch generating heat and abnormal wear, resulting in a premature end of life.

Please avoid using it on a mounting shaft that is outside the recommended tolerances in the catalog.
