Vertical Brakes

Magnetek offers a vertical design of its AIST 300M Mill Duty Shoe Brake. The vertical MBT brake is a great fit when space is restricted by related machinery, structural components, or worker access requirements where a standard horizontal brake does not fit. The thruster is mounted above the brakewheel rather than on one side. The vertically mounted brake meets the same requirements as our horizontal MBT brakes and delivers the same rated torque with minimal maintenance and downtime.
