Gear Reduction Clutch for Subaru EH72

by Continental Engines on September 26, 2011

Image of Gear Reduction Clutch built by Continental Engines for Subaru EH72 Industrial Engine

This Subaru Industrial EH72 Engine Gear Reduction Clutch was built by Continental Engines. This custom engineered / built project from Continental Engines reduces the output shaft RPM. The clutch enables the operator to disengage the engine from what it is driving without stopping the engine. It also enables you to start the engine without a load on it.

No engine manufacturer currently offers an engine with a clutch on it or an engine with a combination clutch and reduction unit  - this is a great solution!

This this can be used as a gear reduction clutch for use with pumps, compressors, dryers, mixers, conveyers or any application that needs to operate at a slower speed than the engine.
