The KEST KBM4 caliper brake is designed for industrial applications where manual regulation of the clamping forces is required. The handwheel is turned for intuitive regulation of the clamping force. Every 360° clockwise turn of the knob increases the clamping force by 222.5 [N]; the maximum of handwheel turns is 12 for a corresponding nominal clamping force value of 2670 [N]. The brake can be installed in any position since it has a lever balancing and lining pad alignment system. The SG iron caliper is designed to withstand the mechanical and thermal stresses generated in compliance with satisfactory safety coefficients.
The lining pads can be adjusted to ensure that the friction surfaces grip the brake disc at all points. Quality controls ensure a reliable, safe product and trouble-free caliper operation. The brake is suitable for applications where static, continuous or service braking is required.
