DriveGuardian NXT is a patented device that improves the reliability of your NXT transmissions and drives. DriveGuardian reduces the torque spikes that are created each time the propeller becomes aerated or exits, and then re-enters the water after hitting a wave. These spikes are generated by the inertia of the rotating engine components and have been measured to be 2X-4X the actual torque output of the engine. These torque spikes far exceed the manufacturer’s torque rating for the NXT transmission and drive, which can lead to broken gears and twisted shafts. DriveGuardian is a torque-limiting clutch that absorbs the damaging torque spikes and protects your entire drivetrain. DriveGuardian has been proven on the racecourse with numerous National and World Championships in offshore powerboat racing.

TITAN Dampener Plate / Steel Flywheel Combo for GM up to 1600HP Description GM Big Block

Hardin Marine has again elevated the level of performance drive train options. Until now the industry has been limited by the fact that the largest damper plate available was rated at merely a 1000 ft lbs. While this has been used by many boats with more power than that its also has been the cause of horrific failures and product/trans damage.

This new drive plate combo take the same technology used to build the OEM 1650 HP Turbo QV4's drive plates and mates it to a proprietary flywheel assembly that retrofits to a traditional Big Block Chevrolet engine family.
So if your building an engine that makes monster power this is the solution to harnessing that horsepower and torque

Replaces Stock Coupler

DriveGuardian is a patented device that reduces the leading cause of pitted/broken gears and twisted shafts in Bravo sterndrives. DriveGuardian replaces the factory Bravo rubber coupler with a multi-plate torque-limiting clutch that is calibrated to your specific application. The cause of many gear and shaft failures is the enormous torque spike that is generated each time the propeller either partially or fully leaves the water, and then is re-submerged. These spikes are generated by the inertia of the rotating engine components and can be 2X-4X the actual torque output of the engine. Each spike lasts only a fraction of a second and throttling alone cannot eliminate them. Every spike causes stress to the gears and shafts which greatly reduces their usable life.

DriveGuardian has been proven on the racecourse with numerous National and World Championships in offshore powerboat racing.

Prior to shipment, each DriveGuardian is mounted to a specially built dyno and load tested to ensure they meet strict manufacturing standards. Your DriveGuardian is then calibrated for your specific engine and drive combination.

DriveGuardian is manufactured with billet aluminum housings and Kevlar clutch plates. DriveGuardian replaces the stock rubber coupler and installation is a direct bolt-on with no additional modifications required. Includes a 1-year Manufacturer Warranty.

DriveGuardian SCS Crashbox, Top Mount Starter

DriveGuardian SCS is a patented device that improves the reliability of your drives. DriveGuardian reduces the torque spikes that are created each time the propeller becomes aerated or exits, and then re-enters the water after hitting a wave. These spikes are generated by the inertia of the rotating engine components and have been measured to be 2X-4X the actual torque output of the engine. While the SCS Crashbox has been proven to be nearly indestructible but these torque spikes can easily exceed the ratings of your drive and lead to broken gears and twisted shafts. DriveGuardian is a torque-limiting clutch that absorbs the damaging torque spikes and protects your entire drivetrain. DriveGuardian has been proven on the racecourse with numerous National and World offshore powerboat racing Championships.

Prior to shipment, each DriveGuardian is mounted to a specially built dyno and load tested to ensure they meet strict manufacturing standards. Your DriveGuardian is then calibrated for your specific engine and drive combination.

DriveGuardian is manufactured using billet aluminum housings, Kevlar clutch plates and include a heavy duty 8-spring damper plate. DriveGuardian replaces the factory flywheel and damper plate assembly and is available for either top or bottom mount starters. Standard units are neutral balance for crankshafts with two-piece rear main seals. Other combinations are available upon request. Installation is a direct bolt-on with no additional modifications required. Includes a 1-year Manufacturer Warranty.

DriveGuardian SSM is a patented device that improves the reliability of your transmissions and drives. DriveGuardian reduces the torque spikes that are created each time the propeller becomes aerated or exits, and then re-enters the water after hitting a wave. These spikes are generated by the inertia of the rotating engine components and have been measured to be 2X-4X the actual torque output of the engine. These torque spikes can easily exceed the ratings of your drivetrain components and lead to overheated transmissions, broken gears and twisted shafts.
