Besides disengaging the engine from the drive train at idle, centrifugal clutches provide several functions to simplify driveline designs on small multipurpose vehicles, lawn tractors and some mowers, power landscaping equipment, mini-bikes and go-karts. They are available in a variety of output types including drive-chain sprocket, V belt, continuously variable transmission belt drives, and coupled shaft drives. Flexible configurations provide for virtually every engine type on the market.
