SHB ltd. is a mid-size company being engaged among other things in constructing and manufacturing components of crane technique and near transport. A range of products includes despite drum brakes according to DIN 15435 also disc brakes, hydraulic bumpers and gear wheels.


Drum and disc brakes of SHB company are designed to use in heavy industry and are used mainly as emergency brakes and supporting for large brake forces.
The main areas of application are cranes and conveyors in steel and metallurgical industry, harbors, shipyards, in quarry and underground mining. They are used as brakes in elevating mechanisms, in drive and jib mechanisms or also in drives of belt conveyors.

There should be underlined especially the following features:
- high moment of braking independent on revolution direction
- stainless pins
- placing bearings in copper and bronze
- uncovered zinc-plated, galvanic parts or made of noble steel
- brake shoes made of aluminum or steel cast
- automatic regulation of abrasion
- accessories such as: lids (aluminum), power switches

There were used non-asbestos brake linings, with friction coefficient l=0,4, which can be used depending on the type, speed to 50m/s in the case of drum brakes, and to 85m/s in the case of disc brakes.


Hydraulic bumpers are used where moving elements should be slowed down basing on definition (e.g. in the case of cranes, gantry wagons, etc.), to minimize forces generated at the moment of hitting a bumper. Hydraulic bumpers made by SHB company accept maximum number of kinetic energy appropriate to their size and weight and covert it depending on given travel of the bumper into the minimal possible force of the bumper, even in the most difficult conditions of operation.


Despite components mentioned above, we also offer a wide range of components and spare parts in accordance with TGL norm (German technical norms).
