FRICTION DISC 1.5T M3

Product Description

 The Kito Friction Disc is a genuine OEM replacement component designed for use in Kito M3 Series manual chain hoists at the 1.5 tonne capacity rating, identified by part number C3BA005-9151. The friction disc is an internal mechanical component of the hoist load brake assembly, providing the friction surface required for the load brake to hold, control, and arrest load movement during lowering operations. The load brake on a manual chain hoist relies on the friction disc to generate the clamping force necessary to hold a suspended load stationary when the operator releases the hand chain, and to provide controlled resistance during lowering that prevents the load from descending in an uncontrolled manner. Maintaining a friction disc that is in sound condition and within the manufacturer's wear tolerances is one of the most critical aspects of hoist brake maintenance, as a worn, glazed, contaminated, or damaged friction disc directly compromises the load-holding and load-lowering safety of the hoist.

The friction disc is subject to wear and thermal degradation over its service life through repeated brake engagement and release cycles during lowering operations, heat generated by friction during controlled load descent, and the cumulative effects of load shock and dynamic braking loads in demanding operating environments. Common conditions requiring friction disc replacement include wear beyond the minimum allowable thickness, glazing of the friction surface that reduces the effective friction coefficient, contamination with oil or grease, cracking or delamination of the friction material, and any condition that results in reduced brake torque or inconsistent load-holding performance. At the 1.5 tonne capacity rating, the M3 Series load brake operates under significant braking loads during each lowering cycle, making regular friction disc inspection and timely replacement particularly important for maintaining full load brake performance and safe hoist operation.

Using a genuine Kito OEM Friction Disc identified by part number C3BA005-9151 ensures the replacement component provides the correct friction material specification, disc geometry, and dimensional fit for the M3 Series 1.5 tonne load brake assembly, and is manufactured to the same material and performance specifications as the original part.

Note: Friction disc replacement must be performed by a qualified hoist technician. The complete load brake assembly must be inspected, correctly reassembled to OEM specifications, and the hoist must be fully function tested and load tested before returning to service following friction disc replacement. Never operate a hoist with a suspected brake fault — remove the hoist from service immediately and arrange for inspection and repair. Never contaminate the friction disc with oil, grease, or solvents during handling or installation.
