Twiflex brakes are fitted to the main propulsion system for three main reasons: Maintenance purposes, particularly while under way. To assist and improve manoeuvrability. Safety: the ability to stop the popellers turning in a very short time.

The brake is usually mounted on the gearbox output flange, particularly when reversing gears are fitted, often in conjunction with Twiflex air start clutches and flexible couplings. Twiflex brakes are used on Naval ships around the world, in particular the Royal Navy, and by many tug and merchant fleet operators.
