Custom large bore shaft collars and couplings for drive train applications in wind power generation systems are available from Stafford Manufacturing Corp. The company’s shaft collars and rigid couplings are custom engineered for applications up to 16” and 8” I.D., and come in one- and two-piece configurations that can be modified to meet a variety […]
High-Torque Disk Couplings Resist Fretting
Torsiflex disk couplings are torsionally stiff and backlash-free, incorporating an anti-flail feature. The couplings also withstand significant levels of misalignment without loss of operating performance. The design drives in friction, rather than shear, to the disc coupling by using large aircraft-quality bolts on the disk hubs. As a result, the pack of blades in the […]
2009 BK Series Catalog from R+W
Stainless steel bellows couplings have grown more prevalent, driving the development of a wide variety of mounting configurations, wall thicknesses, lengths, torque ratings, etc. The 2009 BK series catalog from R+W represents the latest collection of standard bellows coupling designs for applications requiring torque ratings from 15 Nm – 10,000 Nm. Flanges, shafts, hollow bores […]

New Materials From Trelleborg for Hygienic-design Couplings
A newly developed FKM is well-suited for use as a Fluorocarbon sealing material. Volume swell in all CIP media was minimal and in some virtually zero. The materials engineered by Trelleborg Sealing Solutions for its new range of static seals for hygienic-design couplings have undergone testing in Cleaning-In-Process (CIP) media. Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) […]
