What products does Ogura make for the lawn and garden industry?
Power-on clutches and power-off brakes dominate.

PTO clutch brakes are mounted on engine shafts of zero turn mowers, tractors, and more. Most often, they are used to engage/disengage the cutting blades. They also have a brake function to help stop the blades quicker when the clutch is disengaged.

Come see us at the Equip Expo 2023 in Louisville, KY.
It runs October 17-20. Inside booth 2104 near the main entrance. Outside booth 6460D.

We look forward to seeing our friends and OEM customers located throughout the expo. We also appreciate the opportunity to speak with dealers, distributors, and operators about PTO clutch brakes.

With the push towards electrically driven vehicles, we are excited to dedicate a portion of our booth to electromagnetic parking brakes. We also display general purpose engine mounted clutches for mobile equipment. We have pump and compressor clutches for mobile equipment as well. Lastly, outside, we have one of our superchargers on display.

Electromagnetic spring applied brakes are used for parking brakes. They also can handle dynamic emergency stops. When power is applied, the brake is released. When power is removed, the brake engages, with either stopping or holding torque.

Ogura brand is recognized worldwide for top quality, reliability, performance and dependability.
