He will no doubt transition and work fluently in the business sectors we serve. In my experience, veterans bring discipline, a sense of camaraderie, organization and a ‘no mountain is too tall’ mentality. I have seen the benefits of this time and again and Brian personifies that spirit.” Beagan added: “I’m looking forward to
using my life and career experiences to be successful in this new role. I say it’s a small world, but an even smaller Gulf of Mexico. I’ll get reacquainted with some old contacts that I’ve met through almost 18 years as a commercial diver, but am equally keen to meet new people and learn about brake applications in sectors like mining that aren’t initially as familiar to me.” Beagan joins a U.S.-based service team

with wheels from 500mm (19.68 in.) to 1,000mm (39.37 in.) diameter and wheel flange widths from 160mm (6.29 in.) to
254mm (10 in.). It is also suited to paper mill logging cranes, mobile / harbor cranes, steel mill outside service cranes, stacker and bulk storage cranes. The most common sizes for the new range
are the BRBe70, with 56000N braking force (70kN contact force); and the BRBe90, with 72000N braking force (90kN contact force). The brake can be sized up or down based on the application along with adaptation to the bolt pattern of existing wheel brakes or retrofitted to a new application. Joel Cox, president at Pintsch Bubenzer
USA, said: “The product is launched as an alternative to lessen the impact on hydraulics on cranes and make installation improved while reducing costs to owners. The product is greener and avoids the typical hydraulic cylinder repairs or potential for leaks and contamination at docks. Our BRB120 and BRB90 designs are popular hydraulic wheel brakes, but this was built with greater ease and simplicity in mind both for OEMs [original equipment manufacturers] and end users.” To learn more, visit:
