The Hilliard MK Guide Rail Brake is designed for use on elevators, conveyors, cranes or other devices requiring a spring-applied electromagnetically realeased brake.  The patented MK brake can be applied to a guide rail or a brake disc. It is unique in that it is direact acting with one one moving part. The brake incorporates an electromagnet coil that uses a voltage dropping circuit to minimize current draw and heat when the brake is released.  Shipped with manual release bolts for easy assembly to the rail or disc, it can also be equipped with a manual release mechanism for a momentary release of the brake with a standard open-end or socket wrench.
