Description
Overview:
This centrifugal clutch is a belt-drive clutch assembly to suit a 20 mm shaft with a keyway, supplied under Part No. 969 282. Built with robust steel components and friction-lined shoes, it automatically engages as engine speed rises to transmit power smoothly to belt-driven equipment. Designed for small plant and industrial machinery, it is well suited to Honda engines such as the GX110 and GX140. The unit features a compact 60 mm overall depth for easier packaging where space is limited, and it drives a single A section V-belt. The secure keyed-bore connection helps prevent slippage under load, supporting reliable, repeatable performance in daily use on construction, hire, and workshop equipment.
Key Features:
- Fits a 20 mm keyed shaft for positive, slip-free drive
- Smooth centrifugal engagement reduces shock loads on engines, belts, and driven components
- 100 mm clutch drum diameter and 130 mm drum diameter for stable belt contact and efficient power transfer
- Compact 60 mm depth to suit tight engine bays and guards
- Drives a single A section V-belt, common across a wide range of plant and garden machinery
- Durable steel construction with friction linings for long service life
- Straightforward to install and set up on keyed shafts used in small engines
- Suitable for Honda-powered equipment, including models such as GX110 and GX140
- Supports consistent performance in frequent start-stop applications
Typical Applications:
Used to transmit drive from small petrol engines to belt-driven equipment such as compactors, mixers, pumps, generators, tillers, and light conveyor or workshop machinery. Ideal where automatic engagement at operating speed and smooth take-up are required to protect the engine and belt while providing reliable output to the driven tool.
