These torsionally stiff, light weight couplings are capable of transmitting high torques at high speeds while accepting significant levels of angular, radial, and axial misalignment. They are easy to install, suitable for hostile environments, require no lubrication and feature a high torque to weight ratio. Specific designs are available which meet the customer’s exact requirements. Standard units are compliant with API 671 (American Petroleum Institute) and ATEX 94/9/EC.

No maintenance
   
Standard and reduced moment designs available
   
Capable of being torsionally tuned to suit specific machinery requirements



Spring-applied, Hydraulically released brakes

On-site torque adjustment to precisely match application needs microprocessor control option for smooth stops independent of load on belt
   
“park-off” facility for fast pad changing without special tools
   
Controlled reversal of belt
   
Automatic release of belt tension
   
Stops in either direction
   




Up to 169 kNm;
1,500,000 in.lb.

State-of-the-art design from Bibby Transmissions, the original grid coupling manufacturer. G-Flex/Bibby 2000 Series is an all-metal coupling that provides positive protection against the damaging effects of shock loads and vibration. Aluminum horizontal cover (T10), and
all-steel vertical cover (T20) designs are available. G-Flex tapered grid couplings are an excellent choice where torsional flexibility/vibration damping are primary concerns.

Easy to assemble / replace
   
Part-for-part interchangeable with industry standard tapered grid coupling designs
   
Coupling sizes 1020 through 1140 in-stock in a range of standard bore sizes
   
Shot-peened tapered grid flex element for long life



Up to 270 kNm;
2,400,000 in.lbs.

Form-Flex metal disc couplings consist of two hubs, a spacer and two high strength carbon or stainless steel flexible discs. Modified and special designs
are commonly supplied to meet specific application conditions. Available in carbon steel, stainless steel or with corrosion resistant coatings.

No maintenance
   
Zero backlash
   
Close couple, spacer and floating shaft designs available
   
Easy interchangeability
   



Up to 180 kNm;
1,600,000 in.lb.


GC Series couplings feature unitized, straight-sided flexible discs for ease of installation. Up-to-date design targeted specifically for heavy industrial applications. These couplings provide increased torque capacity per size by taking advantage of the latest materials and design technologies.

Unitized Flex Packs
   
Easier, faster installation
   
Interchangeable with industry standard designs
   
Fewer sizes to cover a full range of applications
   
Reduced spare parts inventory
   
Lower total cost of ownership
   
Special designs avaiable for higher-torque applications





'Fail to safety' design for high cyclic and general stopping and holding duties. The LI/SSB is designed for end-shaft or through-shaft mounting.

Start/Stop parts have a low inertia which:
   
  - Reduces acceleration times and allows more cycles per minute
     
  - Reduces heat generated
     
Air applied clutch with full circle friction discs
   
Extremely fast response
   
Available in 1,2,3 or 4 plate designs to suit torque, heat, response and space requirements.
   
Air connections are non-rotating. For dry use only
