Red Eagle Friction
Red Eagle Friction is the go-to material for most performance applications.
The lining has a unique dual saturation, which imparts high friction coefficients and high heat resistance. Red Eagle clutches are designed to limit the amount of "slip" by providing a shorter lock-up time, generating less heat.
Our proprietary process starts with the friction paper saturated in a phenolic resin, cured, and then saturated a second time in a silicate. The silicate imparts high heat resistance.
Red Eagle clutches:
- Are designed with a softer, more resilient base paper.
- Assure less wear against opposing steel plates.
- Reduce the incidence of steel plates burning and warping.
Kolene® Steel
Kolene®is a salt bath nitriding process. In generic terms, it is a thermochemical diffusion process, whereby ferrous parts are processed in molten salt with a specific nitrogen potential. In plain English, it provides a surface treatment that enhances wear and fatigue resistance from 200% to 500% which offers higher heat resistant and increased lubricity.
Kolene® Steel
- Strengthen wear characteristics
- Increase fatigue strength
- Enhance lubricity
Kolene is a registered trademark of Kolene Corporation.
PowerPacks®
Alto created extra capacity clutches. The concept was originally developed for the TH700R4 3/4 pack.
It has since been enhanced for many of todays High Energy applications.
- Increased surface area for increased holding
- Increased surface area for increased heat absorption
- Increased surface area for shorter lock-up time - decreasing "slippage"
