5024-H HYDRAULIC APPLIED BRAKE

Kobelts 5024-H hydraulic applied caliper disc brake is built primarily of bronze and stainless steel. It is providing a solid, long-lasting braking solution for even the harshest, most corrosive conditions. This brake is well suited for service braking applications in the oil and gas, mining, material handling and manufacturing industries.

The 5024-H comes in several different mounting configurations, matched well to Kobelt’s 2″ (51 mm) ventilated discs. With a minimum of 20″ (508 mm) diameter and no theoretical limit on maximum disc size.

All Kobelt brakes feature a shoe design. These allow the brake pads to be easily and quickly changed while leaving the caliper in place.

All Kobelt caliper brakes can be fitted with either air applied, hydraulic applied, spring applied with air released or spring applied with hydraulic released actuators depending on the required service.

INSTALLATION

The foundation plate to support the brake caliper must be designed to withstand the maximum braking forces generated by the brake caliper. It must also be flat to ISO tolerance grade IT8 and square to the brake disc. A brake pedestal must be designed to allow the mounting bolts to be inserted from underneath. The rotating element should have bearings sufficient to carry the weight of the disc. It also resist the additional stress when the disc brake is applied. The spigot that centers the brake disc must not be designed in such a way that it impedes the thermal expansion of the disc.
Any guarding around the brakes must provide enough room to allow full extension of the brake
actuators plus full pad wear adjustment.

The piping to the brakes must be adequately sized to ensure rapid response times in all weather conditions. The piping must be selected to safely withstand the pressures required to operate the brakes.

For all Kobelt brakes are repair kits available.
