Couplings
Couplings are the interface between a driving piece of equipment, such as an engine or electric motor and a item being driven such as a hydraulic pump or belt. They come in a few different varieties depending on the desired application. Typically these will be made either from cast aluminum or iron with varying torque ratings. They also come in different ranges such as flexible, jaw-type and rigid configurations to meet varying tolerances and shaft types.
Advantages & Technical Features:
High-quality couplings can be the difference between a smooth running operation and a critical failure. Misalignment, vibration and shock loads can all impact the reliability of a coupling. As part of our quotation process we'll ensure that all equipment offered takes into account your particular circumstance.
To enable best selection for a coupling the following details will need to be taken into account:
- Pump model
- Engine or motor type
- Shaft sizes
- Torque and speed requirements
- Operating environment
These details will ensure that the coupling is correctly rated for the load and duty cycle, reducing the risk of overload or mechanical fatigue.
Applications:
Couplings are used across a wide range of industries to connect rotating shafts and transmit torque safely and efficiently. Typical applications include:
Pumps & Fluid Transfer Systems:
Ensuring smooth, vibration-free operation between engines, motors, and pump shafts.
Industrial Machinery:
Used in conveyors, compressors, mixers, and processing equipment where consistent torque transfer is essential.
Agricultural & Mobile Equipment:
Ideal for PTO-driven implements, hydraulic power units, and compact machinery where lightweight or corrosion-resistant couplings are beneficial.
Electric Motor Drives
Providing alignment compensation and shock absorption in fans, blowers, and general industrial drives.
Custom or Non-Standard Equipment
Machined solutions ensure compatibility with older machinery, imported equipment, or units with unique shaft geometries.
