These are basically similar to conventional sprag clutches, but the sprags have their centre of gravity offset to the pivot point such that in the overrun mode the sprag elements are thrown out of contact with the stationary race by centrifugal force These clutches are for applications involving long periods of high speed freewheeling, when no wear occurs, such as barring motors, starter drives, pump and motor backstops. Three basic types are offered:

At Cross and Morse we are a leading manufacturer and supplier of freewheel clutches. We offer customers three different configurations of freewheel clutch, the ball and roller bearing sprag clutch, the single revolution clutch and the backstop clutch. These are all used in different ways and offer our customers a range of different freewheel clutch options, depending on the torque transmission needs. We supply our freewheel clutches are commonly supplied ready greased and ready to use. For more information on freewheel clutches and their applications, talk to Cross and Morse today on 0121 360 0155, or send us an email to sales@crossmorse.com.

Coupling types GFA and GFAS from Cross+Morse are designed for heavy industrial applications. The GFA coupling consists of two hardened steel hubs with external crowned and barrelled teeth connected by a hardened steel sleeve with matching gear teeth. The GFAS coupling has only one hub with external teeth which connects to a sleeve with integral hub. This povides a stiffer connection suited to cardan shaft applications. High torque capacity coupling for medium speed applications, up to 6,000 rpm. Torsionally stiff. Require good alignment for long service life. Use Gear couplings:- For high torque reversing drives on Cranes, Rolling Mills, high shock load applications, Crushers, Rubber Mills, large Motor Gearbox connection and Drives requiring torsional stiffness.

At Cross and Morse we offer a comprehensive range of high quality gear and gear systems which can be supplied quickly across the country. Our product range ensures your engineers have several different solutions to choose from when using open gear drives. We can supply the following gear types:

• Bevel and mitre gears which can be flame hardened.
• Spur gears which provide a good level of power transmission.
• Straight racks which are a low cost converter of rotary motion to linear motion.

Find out more about our gears and gear systems by contacting Cross and Morse today on 0121 360 0155.

Cross+Morse offer a complete range of standard spur gears all machined from medium carbon steels suitable for induction hardening, available from stock or on a short delivery with finish bore and key.

Straight Racks available in standard lengths of 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 metres is a range of 20° PA straight cut racks with pitch range 1 Mod. to 8 Mod. These are designed to combine with the standard spur gears to provide low cost conversion of rotary to linear motion.

Racks can be supplied modified to enable easy mounting by addition of plain or tapped holes.

Cross and Morse an manufacture Mitre and Bevel Gears: Straight cut gears to the Gleason system up to 500mm diameter, in a variety of materials.

Spur Gears: In diametrical, circular or module pitches with tooling available most pitch sizes in both 141/2° and 20° pressure angle for gears up to 730mm diameter.

Helical Gears: With helix angles up to 45° and pitch diameter up to 710mm.

Internal Gears and Splines: Hubs up to 635mm can be machined to a depth of 100mm either standard spur gear or internal splines.

Splines and Serrations: Involute, flat root, or fillet root splines and serrations can be cut on machined shafts or customer blanks. Call us now on 0121 360 0155.
