Product Profile of Lubricant Free Tyre Couplings
Lubricant Free Tyre Couplings tolerate large amounts of misalignment in all planes as well as offer simple installation and inspection without disrupting the drive. These Tyre Couplings have large misalignment capability like 4° angular, up to 6mm parallel and 8mm axial. Tyre Couplings are also available in spacer and flywheel type of construction. Lubricant Free Tyre Couplings are completely free from backlash and ideal for reversing applications, especially with geared drives.
Key Features of Lubricant Free Tyre Couplings
- Large misalignment capability, 4° angular, up to 6mm parallel and 8mm axial.
- Very good shock absorption - couplings "wind-up" approx. 12° at maximum torque to absorb shocks in a system.
- Internal load carrying cords are wound in both directions, so there is no problem on reversing drives.
- Tyres are available in standard and Fire Resistant Anti-Static [FRAS] construction - so no static build up of electricity and fire resistant.
- Compact design.
- Larger T/L`s available on certain `F` flanges to increase maximum bore capacity.
- Also available in Spacer and Flywheel types.
- Lubrication free shaft coupling.
- Visual inspection of tyre to detect wears - no machine strip down.
- Wide variation of flanges available.
- Design powers to 900kW at 1440 Rpm.
