One-Way Clutches are a crucial component in automatic transmissions, having outstanding engagement capabilities for superior performance.

• Compact design with high torque capacity
• Outstanding durability
• Easy to handle during the assemble process

Friction Plates use high-performance friction paper and are packed alternately with Separator Plates. They are used for wet multiple-disc clutches in automatic transmissions.

• High coefficient of friction and outstanding durability
• Allows automatic transmission with smooth engagement
• Allows light and compact clutch design

Flex Bands are used for brake bands of automatic transmissions. These bands are light in weight and flexible, permitting superior brake performance.

• High brake torque capacity
• High thermal resistance/Outstanding durability
• Assures smooth speed changes

Hydraulic Lock-up Clutches are used in torque converters for improved fuel efficiency. These clutches connect engine directly to shifting gear sets.

• High coefficient of friction
• High thermal resistance/Outstanding durability
• Allows smoothly connected Lock-up

One-way clutches assembled with inner & outer races, which are widely used in construction, agriculture, and other industrial machinery.

Maintenance free, using high-performance grease assuring outstanding durability and reliability

Maintenance Free

GX-series One-Way Clutches are supplied "ready-to-use," and require no maintenance such as greasing up, cleaning or grease change, offering significant economies of time and labor.

A board operating temperature range

GX series use the high-performance grease developed by NSK. It assures outstanding reliability over an ambient operating temperature range of -20 to +80ºC.

High torque capacity

Wide cams with a larger radius of curvature than conventional models achieve high torque capacity under high loads for improved safety. A unique cam shape allows the GX series to withstand even shock loads without slipping

Long life

NSK’s expertise in ball bearing manufacturing technology ensures high dimensional precision of the cams, and inner and outer races, offering long service life. The high-performance grease used to lubricate the GX series also helps minimize the wear on each part and prolong its life.

Easy to use

GX-series One-Way Clutches are supplied as integral systems with all components built in. They are ready to be used "as it is".
