Stearns Brake Parts

Stearns offers the most comprehensive line of solenoid actuated brakes (SAB's) on the market today. Stearns has earned the reputation as the industry's quality leader by working closely with customers. We have used Stearns brakes with our products since 1955. Many brakes operating today are 40 years old. Stearns electric motor brakes can be mounted directly to an electric motor or foot mounted. The compact design delivers high torque in a small size with fast, positive response and no residual drag when re-leased.

Stearns brakes can be mounted di-rectly onto NEMA C-face electric motors without special alignment procedures. Many motor manufacturers offer a brake kit which will convert a stock fan-cooled motor into a brake motor. Stearns Solenoid Actuated Brakes feature unitized construction which makes servicing friction discs easy using only a screwdriver and wrench. With ALL Stearns products, the friction material is non-asbestos. We stock a wide variety of Stearns products and in most cases ship within 24 hours.
