Stearns manufactures motor brakes for specialty applications like quiet brakes, thin-profile brakes, tire press brakes, encoder brakes and water-based industrial application brakes.
Solenoid actuated brakes with an internally mounted encoder are available in all IP ratings, including hazardous location.
Armature actuated brakes with dampening O-rings and a unique hub design reduce operating noise for sound-sensitive applications.
Armature actuated brakes with a thin profile are ideal for high-temperature environments and applications with limited space.
Solenoid actuated brakes with a unique high-temperature friction disc material and sealed housing reduce maintenance and extend service life in tire manufacturing plants.
Brakes used in dockside, shipboard, Coast Guard, Naval and severe duty applications have the highest levels of corrosion resistance and can be custom built to spec.
