In oil shear technology, torque is transmitted through a film of transmission fluid between friction discs and drive plates, and the recirculating fluid carries heat out of the friction stack. The company states that this gives long service life without maintenance or adjustment, in industries from steel, mining and packaging to marine, oil and gas.
