There is provided an asymmetric torque limiter (30) having an axis of rotation (A) including a first annular friction disk (42), a second annular friction disk (46) a skewed roller disk (48) a first resilient member (44) and a second resilient member (60). The second annular friction disk (46) is concentrically arranged with the first annular friction disk (42). The skewed roller disk (48) is in contact with the second annular friction disk (46). The skewed roller disk (48) includes a plurality of skewed rollers (52) mounted in an annular retainer (50). The plurality of skewed rollers (52) are each rotatable about a respective roller axis, each roller axis being skewed with respect to a radial direction passing through the skewed roller (52) from the axis of rotation (A). The first resilient member (44) is attached to the first annular friction disk (42) and is configured to bias the first annular friction disk (42) toward an input shaft (32). The second resilient member (60) is configured to bias the skewed roller disk (48) toward the second annular friction disk (46).
