A simple and low-cost structure is provided for fixing friction members of a torque limiter. The torque limiter includes a flywheel (5), a clutch plate (20), a spline hub (22), a clutch disc assembly (6) and a transmission torque limiting part (7). The flywheel (5) includes a friction coupling surface (14b). The clutch plate (20) includes plural axial through holes (20b). Plural friction members (26) are respectively attached to the through holes (20b). The spline hub (22) can be engaged with a transmission-side shaft (3). The clutch disc assembly (6) circumferentially elastically couples the clutch plate (20) and the spline hub (22). The transmission torque limiting part (7) limits torque to be transmitted from the flywheel (5) to the transmission-side shaft (3) while the friction members (26) are interposed and held between the transmission torque limiting part (7) and the friction coupling surface (14b) of the flywheel (5).
