GR-55 Series Complete Coupling
The GR-55 Series is a robust, torsionally flexible industrial coupling designed for high-power transmission and significant shock absorption. This complete set features two high-strength hubs and a precision-moulded polyurethane spider, engineered to protect connected machinery by dampening torsional vibrations and compensating for substantial shaft misalignments in heavy industrial environments.
-
Superior Torque Handling: Rated for 685Nm (with Red 98 Sh-A insert), offering the rugged capacity required for high-torque industrial drives, large-scale pumps, and industrial mixers.
-
98 Shore A Hardness Insert: The high-durometer red polyurethane spider provides exceptional resistance to oils, chemicals, and extreme temperatures (-30°C to +90°C continuous / up to 120°C peak).
-
Vibration Damping: The curved jaw design is specifically optimized to absorb operational shocks and resonance, significantly extending the service life of bearings and seals in high-mass drive-trains.
-
Durable Hub Construction: Typically supplied in high-quality cast iron (GJL) or steel, providing the structural mass and durability required for steady-state industrial power transmission.
-
Fail-Safe Operation: Designed as a “fail-safe” coupling; the jaws will remain interlocked to transmit torque even if the elastomer spider fails, preventing a complete loss of drive in critical industrial systems.
