BackstopsLow Speed Backstops

A mechanical component with a large, cylindrical housing that has several screws along the edge. A long, rectangular metal carrier is attached to the housing.

High speed and low speed backstop with sprag lift off and roller ramps design. Available either with or without radial support bearings and a reaction torque arm.
