Description
The Milling Machine Overload Clutch Trip Lever B74-96 is an essential safety component used in the feed transmission system of vertical and turret milling machines. It activates the overload release mechanism when excessive torque or sudden load occurs, preventing damage to the feed gears, motor, and drive components.
Engineered from hardened alloy steel for robustness and long life, the trip lever ensures smooth feed operation and dependable overload protection. Its precision-machined profile guarantees accurate interaction with the overload clutch assembly, delivering consistent performance even under heavy-duty machining loads.
Usage:
- Used to engage and disengage the overload clutch mechanism in vertical turret milling machines During Auto feed
- Automatically trips the feed system when excessive load or jamming occurs to protect gears and feed components.
- Works as part of the safety cut-off assembly to prevent damage to the auto-feed gearbox.
- Ensures smooth operation by resetting and reactivating the auto-feed after the overload condition is cleared.
- Ideal for routine maintenance and replacement during feed system servicing or overload clutch repairs.

More questions buyers ask
What is an overload clutch trip lever in a milling machine?
It is a safety component that automatically disengages the feed system when excessive torque or jamming occurs, protecting the gears and motor.
Which milling machine models is this B7496 lever compatible with?
It is designed for M2, M3, M4, and M5 series Ram Turret Milling Machines.
What material is the Pentagon B7496 trip lever made of?
It is manufactured from high-strength, hardened alloy steel to ensure maximum wear resistance and durability.
Why is the overload clutch important for milling?
It prevents catastrophic damage to the auto-feed gearbox and drive components during heavy-duty milling or drilling operations.
Can I replace the trip lever myself?
Yes, it is a direct OEM-compatible replacement, but ensure the machine is powered off and follow standard maintenance procedures.
What are the key dimensions of this trip lever?
The lever has a length of 145mm, height of 52mm, and a 15mm inner hole.
How does the trip lever protect the machine?
When the feed mechanism encounters resistance beyond the factory-set limit, the lever trips the clutch to stop the feed, preventing mechanical failure.
Is this part suitable for heavy-duty milling?
Yes, its hardened alloy steel construction is specifically designed to withstand the stresses of continuous, heavy-duty industrial use.
Does the trip lever come with a warranty?
Please check the product documentation or contact our support team for specific warranty details on this spare part.
Where can I buy this milling machine spare part in India?
You can purchase the Pentagon Overload Clutch Trip Lever directly through our online store with pan-India shipping.
Who should choose the Pentagon B7496 Overload Clutch Trip Lever?
Maintenance engineers and workshop owners operating M2-M5 series turret mills who need a reliable, high-durability replacement for worn-out feed safety components.
Is this part compatible with non-Pentagon milling machines?
It is designed as an OEM-compatible replacement for standard B7496-type turret mills; verify your machine's parts manual before purchase.
How does this compare to generic replacement levers?
The Pentagon version is precision-machined from hardened alloy steel, offering superior wear resistance and operational accuracy compared to standard cast-iron or low-grade steel alternatives.
