Elastomeric
Couplings

Up to 0.70 kNm;
6,228 in.lb.

The Jaw-type elastomeric coupling is an economical, proven solution for general purpose applications. Jaw couplings are easy to install and require no lubrication or maintenance. Four different flexible insert types are available: Buna-N rubber, Urethane, Hytrel™ and Bronze. Jaw couplings are an excellent choice for all light and medium duty general purpose industrial applications.

No maintenance/lubrication
   
Part-for-part interchangeable with industry standard design
   
Fail-safe design – equipment will continue to drive if elastomer fails
   
Wide range of in-stock inch and metric bore sizes
   
   
Typical Applications
Pumps
Fans/Blowers
Electric Motors
Compressors
   
   


Up to 8.20 kNm;
72,480 in.lb.

Sure-Flex is a TB Wood's original! Sure-Flex Couplings utilize a rubber (EPDM or Neoprene) or Hytrel™ thermoplastic flex element (sleeve) to transmit torque and accommodate shaft misalignments. Sure-Flex couplings have exceptional torsional flexibility, and the
4-way flexing action absorbs virtually all types of shock, vibration, misalignment, and
end float. Sure-flex couplings are an excellent choice when low cost, high flexibility, vibration damping, and easy installation are primary concerns.
