An automotive slipper clutch, also known as a torque limiter, allows the clutch to disengage while decelerating the speed of vehicles partially. It is integrated with a freewheel mechanism and an anti-lock braking system (ABS), which aids in reducing overall momentum, preventing sudden forces from damaging the transmission, minimizing engine braking and increasing transmission longevity. Additionally, it helps prevent rear-wheel lock-up, absorbs shock and vibration, and improves the performance of vehicles. As a result, the automotive slipper clutch is gaining immense traction across the globe to reduce the chances of accidents or collisions.
