Air, hydraulic, or spring set actuated and water cooled
design, featuring copper wear plates optimized for
heavy-duty continuous slip tension applications
Oil and Gas
The AquaMakks family is
ideally suited for superior water
cooled tension control for
drawworks applications.
Metal Processing
& Metal Forming
AquaMaKKs clutches and
brakes can be used to control
tension on the coilers in metal
processing plants and to
control tension in unwind
stands and slitters in metal
forming facilities.
Marine Deck
Machinery
Positioning and Mooring
Winches require high heat
dissipation and accurate
tension control. That's why
AquaMaKKs is ideal for these
applications.
Forestry
AquaMaKKs water cooled
brakes provide precise tension
control on winch drives for
mobile forestry equipment,
such as yarders.

hysteresis than piston type
actuators
• Engineered packaged
solutions including shafts,
water kits, covers, and deck
mounts
• The unit can be easily
removed for service if
required and/or quickly
swapped out for maximum
rig availability and rapid
serviceability, reducing
expensive downtime
Features that make AquaMaKKs ideal for oil and gas applications:
• Compatible with PLC
control systems
