- Backlash free, highly flexible tire coupling
- Nominal torque: 1,600 Nm – 90,000 Nm
- Operating temperatures: -40 °C to +80 °C
- 9 sizes
The ELPEX coupling’s transmission properties are mainly determined by its flexible rings, which are made of a natural rubber blend with a multi-ply fabric lining and are split to allow easy replacement without moving the coupled machines.
Main Advantages
- Ideal for connecting machines with non-uniform torque characteristics due to its low torsional stiffness and damping properties
- Fail-safe device between flexible rings for emergency operation in case of damage
Customer benefits
- Suitable for high dynamic loads
- Good damping properties
- Available as a fail-safe coupling
- Available as a shaft and flange coupling
- Designs available that comply with API 610 and API 671
Applications
Suitable for drives with periodically excited systems:
- Internal combustion engines
- Piston compressors
- Pumps
- Drives with high shock loads or shaft misalignments in compressors, excavators, and shredders
