Unique Design Provides
Optimum Contact Surface
The triangular configuration of the
FlexRing hub provides maximum
surface contact with the flexible,
yet strong center ring. The tough
rubber core not only assures a
positive, slip-proof grip, but also
provides the resilience to protect
against shock and stress during
start and stop or due to
misalignment in shaft connections.
This means more efficient transfer
of power from one shaft to another
while compensating for misalignment.
With this efficiency, FlexRing Couplings
withstand intermittant overloads up
to 50%, which is rarely achieved by
competitive couplings.
FlexRing Couplings
work well on applications using low
torque/high RPM and high torque/low
RPM.
Smoother Running, Reduced
Harmonic Resonance, Less Heat
Model for model, FlexRing Couplings are the quietest available, and provide vibration-free operation with very little heat build-up. They reduce and dampen resonance and harmonics encountered with some couplings; there's no rumble. Heat build-up is quickly dissipated due to the unique design of aluminum hub, flanges and ring.
Long Life with High Reliability
With proper selection, FlexRing Couplings will lengthen the service life of small motors and improve operating performance.In one equipment application, FlexRing Couplings have operated for over 20 years without replacement.
Greater Misalignment
The flexible center ring's double-engagement action permits angular misalignment up to 6° and considerable parallel misalignment up to .020" with less strain on the motor and shaft bearings. Some competitive couplings provide only 1° angular and .015" parallel misalignment.
