RINGSPANN FBF LZ series freewheels are power transmission components that transmit torque in one direction of rotation and release in the opposite direction. They are mounted on shafts and used for backstop, intermittent indexing and automatic coupling functions in industrial machines and installations. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies them in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as exclusive representative of RINGSPANN, with technical advice to choose the model for each application.
The FBF LZ series designation is read in parts: the letters FBF identify the family of complete freewheels, the number that follows indicates the construction size and the LZ suffix distinguishes the execution variant within that series. To request a quote, it is enough to provide the complete code shown on the drawing or on the equipment nameplate.
These freewheels are used in equipment where backrunning must be prevented or movements synchronized: inclined conveyors, bucket elevators, loading belts, mixers, pumps and machine tool drives. In Argentine industry they appear in food, cement, mining, port and aggregate processing plants, as well as in production lines and lifting equipment. They are also used as a safety coupling in transmissions that must not rotate in the reverse direction.
To select a freewheel, you must define the torque it must transmit, the rotation speed, the locking direction and the mounting type on the shaft. It is key to verify alignment between the shaft and the housing, the permissible axial and radial play, and the type of sealing according to the environment: dust, moisture or frequent washdowns. Lubrication must follow the manufacturer's instructions for each execution, and mounting should be done with suitable tools to avoid damaging the internal locking elements.
Freewheels are identified by their designation and mounting dimensions, not by a universal code. When replacing a unit, compare the complete code, shaft diameter and length, nominal torque and direction of rotation before defining the equivalence. Construction variants may differ between brands, so interchangeability is always confirmed against the equipment's technical data sheet. If you have doubts, send us the code and a photo of the mounting and we will review it with you.
