400 Series (Legacy) Torque Limiter
Autogard 400 Series torque limiters are available for sale; however, we recommend selecting the enhanced F400 design.
The 400 Series has been designed to meet the need for a high-and low-speed, free-wheeling torque limiter. It differs from previous ball detent designs by using two sets of balls on concentric pitch circles.
