ABSTRACT:
A metal roller clutch cage is formed from a pair of notched metal side rails and cross bars with rectangular tabs that fit through the notched cross bars. Some of the tabs are deformed to clasp the side rails to the cross bars, giving a rigid and secure composite structure. The thickness of the metal stock of the cross bars is related to the depth of the side rail notches in such a way as to assure that the parts of the cage that engage the outer and inner races are a pair of cut edges and a rolled on clad layer of the cross bars respectively. This assures that a minimal amount of expensive clad steel is used, and the total tolerance of that part of the cage that maintains the races coaxial or concentric may be held very closely.
