Flextork® Series RI Couplings
APPLICATIONS
- Metal Manufacture
- Mining and mineral processing
- Pumps
- Fans
- Cranes and hoists.
- Pulp and Paper Industry
- General heavy duty industrial application
Severe shock load protection |
Gives protection and avoids failure of the driveline under high transient torques |
Intrinsically fail safe |
Ensures continuous operation of the driveline in the unlikely event of rubber failure or damage |
Maintenance free |
No lubrication or adjustment required resulting in low running cost. |
Vibration control |
Achieves low vibratory loads in the driveline components by selection of optimum stiffness characteristics |
Zero backlash |
Eliminates torque amplification through pre-compression of the rubber elements |
Misalignment capability |
Allows axial and radial misalignment between the driving and driven machines. |
Low cost |
The RI Coupling gives the lowest lifetime cost |
Construction details
- Rubber Industrial Couplings up to RI40 are made out of special grade (S.G). Iron. Couplings from RI60 to RI600 are made of steel casting
- Separate rubber elements with a choice of grade and hardness, styrene butadiene with 60 shore hardness ( Sm60 ) being the standard
- Rubber elements loaded in compression
- Rubber elements are totally enclosed.
