ELPEX Flexible Ring Coupling

  • 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
