Seekonk IT-4-BK-179: 3/8-Inch Pre-Set Torque Limiter - Black finish, 179 in-lbs overload protection
✔️ 3/8-inch shaft bore - fixed preset torque 179 in-lbs - black finish - rugged steel housing

This IT-4-BK-179 torque limiter from Seekonk comes as a single unit, designed for inline drives using a 3/8-inch shaft and a 179 in-lbs preset torque. It provides reliable overload protection by slipping at the set torque to shield gears, belts, and couplings from damage. Built with a durable black powder-coated steel housing, it’s well suited for harsh industrial environments and is ideal for conveyors, packaging lines, and other automated equipment where a precise torque limit is essential. This model’s 179 in-lbs (20.2 Nm) setting aligns with many small-to-mid-scale drive systems and is compatible with common 3/8" shaft assemblies.

✅ Torque setting: 179 in-lbs (20.2 Nm) for 3/8" (9.525 mm) shafts
✅ Shaft size: 3/8" (9.525 mm) diameter, fixed torque limit
✅ Finish: black powder-coated housing for rugged use
✅ Material: steel construction with durable internal components
✅ Mounting/fit: compatible with standard inline shaft assemblies
💡 What is a pre-set torque limiter and how does it protect industrial drives? This device slips at the predetermined torque to prevent overload on drive components. - Protects shafts, gears, and couplings from excessive torque - Provides a fixed torque rating for reliable, predictable protection - Handy for conveyors, packaging lines, and automated machinery with specific shaft sizes - Easy to integrate with common 3/8" shaft systems This setup helps keep production running smoothly under peak loads, reducing downtime and wear.
