Couplings are designed to connect two shafts together to transmit power. Typically, couplings join two pieces of rotating equipment that may be moving at different speeds with some misalignment or end movement. Often subject to harsh operating environments, couplings play an important role in many industries.

 

Timken® Quick-Flex elastomeric couplings are durable enough to stand up under extremely demanding conditions, yet need minimal maintenance. They are easy to install and require no lubrication. With a lifespan that can match that of the rotating equipment, these couplings help keep the overall cost of ownership competitively low.

 

There is no metal-to-metal contact with Timken Quick-Flex couplings, so they save money by avoiding replacement of hubs or other metal components. The design helps eliminate interference between coupling hubs that can damage equipment. As needed, operators can replace the urethane insert quickly and easily without removing the hubs.

 

Timken Quick-Flex couplings handle a variety of industrial jobs:

• Motor to gearbox (Low torque/High speed)
• Gearbox to driven equipment (High torque/Low speed)
• Motors to pumps
• Any drive shaft to a driven shaft
