Flexible coupling is used when you have two pipes that need to be connected together for whatever reason. Rigid couplings are more limited in their application, but flexible couplings can do much more without breaking and sustaining problems. Power can be transmitted through the coupling from one of the shafts to the other. It’s a rotational power, known as torque, which is transmitted between them when flexible coupling is used. When your pipes need to be connected securely and properly, only the best flexible coupling should be used if you want the right outcomes for your pipes and machinery.

A flexible coupling can be made to accommodate different types of load conditions, so they will be able to cope without whatever kind of stress or pressure they’ll be put under. If you, for example, require a coupling that requires shaft misalignment, you definitely need to use a flexible coupling solution. Variable degrees of misalignment can be managed. We have a range of options that you can browse and consider. Don’t hesitate to contact us and talk about the flexible coupling solution you’re looking for if you can’t exactly find what you want on our website.

On top of the other things associated with using flexible coupling, it also offers vibration damping. This can stop the issue of vibration causing problems to your machinery. Further, it can also provide some reduction in noise from your machinery. It makes the machinery better able to cope with the pressure it’s put under, meaning the driving mechanisms can stay protected for longer. With the right flexible coupling in place, it is simply not possible. Maybe even more important: Our flexible coupling is affordable and easy to use, so it’s a worthwhile investment to make.

There are many different conditions that should be taken into consideration when you’re deciding which flexible coupling option is going to be right for you. Backlash is one such issue that you should think about. If your flexible coupling is going to be utilising moving parts, consider the amount of rotational play will be inherent to the functioning of your machinery and pipes. Service conditions can also be very important. These refer to factors like the temperature, lubrication and accessibility for things such as maintenance. All of these should be surveyed and weighed up before deciding which flexible coupling is right for you. Each of those factors will have an impact on how the flexible coupling will work and what it can handle.
