197-8896: PLATE-REACTI

Description: Cat drive train components must endure incredible torque, high impact loads, and frequent direction and gear changes. Cat designs and manufactures its transmissions and final drive components with these demands in mind. The result is a drive train that lasts longer and works harder over the life of the machine. Cat reaction plates are designed to work with braking systems, providing critical friction to slow, stop or hold a machine stationary. Attributes: • Cast iron reaction plate • Three flanges with dowel clearance holes provide exact OEM fit • Material and heat treat reduce plate wear and improve durability • Surface finish requirements maximize brake life • Providing sufficient force and torque reaction to the brake group allows braking performance to meet applicable certification requirements Application: Brake reaction plates are used in Cat drive train braking systems.
