To accommodate the variety of transmission requirements, SUCO offers a wide and flexible product
range. Both axial and radial drives can be supplied.
All centrifugal brakes and clutches must only be used in conjunction with a suitable drum
or belt pulley. The operation of a clutch or brake without a suitable drum or belt pulley is
forbidden. Non-compliance can result in injury to persons.
