The SafeSet principle is simple: friction and adaptability. No material fatigue or wear ensures constant torque protection during operation. The SafeSet coupling includes a twin-walled hollow sleeve. Friction is generated upon expansion by pressurized hydraulic oil. The integrated shear tube holds pressure to ensure a constant but easy adaptable torque transmission. In an overload situation the SafeSet slips and the shear tube shears off. Oil pressure drops and the frictional surfaces separate. Then the SafeSet rotates on the bearings without transmitting any torque.
