Brake Systems Application Guide

TYPICAL DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS

HYDRAULIC BRAKES

DESCRIPTION:

Type H manually operated hydraulic brakes for
smooth controlled service stops.  Sizes are 6” through
18” with torque ratings 150 to 900 ft-lbs.; one and two
brake systems.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:

Bridge brakes for overhead, gantries and heavy duty
cranes. The hydraulic brakes described in the
following pages have been utilized for many years in
steel mill cranes, shipyards and other applications
where an “operator” control stop is desirable.

DESCRIPTION:

Type HM brakes not only provide smooth controlled
stopping but are also equipped with a spring applied
parking actuator. Sizes for single brake systems 6”
through 18”, two brake systems 6” and 8”.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:

Bridge brakes for “outdoor” cranes that require
parking feature due to wind loads.
