Jaw Coupling & Spider Element

Jaw couplings (often referred to as Star couplings in some catalogs) are composed of two metal hubs and a central flexible insert known as a Spider. The Spider element acts as the shock absorber, sitting between the "jaws" of the hubs to dampen vibration and compensate for misalignment.

Why Choose Jaw Coupling & Spider Element

Key Features & Improvements

Engineering advancements that make the Jaw Coupling & Spider Element the smarter, longer-lasting choice.

  • Performance: These are "fail-safe" couplings; if the spider fails, the jaw hubs will lock together to continue power transmission until the machine can be safely shut down.
  • Customization: Spiders are available in different materials (like Nitrile or Polyurethane) to suit varying hardness and environmental requirements.

Gear Coupling

Gear couplings are designed for heavy-duty applications requiring high torque transmission. They feature unique hub teeth with a crowned tooth formation on three surfaces—tip, flank, and root. This design ensures maximum contact at the strongest part of the tooth, allowing the coupling to effectively accommodate shaft misalignment while enhancing overall efficiency.

Pin Bush Coupling

A Pin Bush type flexible coupling is a cushioned drive system that transmits torque through high-tensile steel bolts (pins) to the machine input. These couplings utilize highly developed rubber compounds in the bushes to absorb shocks, torsional vibrations, and minor misalignments.

Chain Coupling

Chain couplings represent one of the oldest and most reliable methods of joining two rotating shafts. They consist of two sprockets joined by a standard double-strand roller chain. This design allows for a rugged, simple, yet highly efficient transmission with virtually no power loss.

Resilient Coupling

Resilient couplings (also known as Grid Spring couplings) are specifically engineered to handle high-shock loads and protect sensitive equipment. They use a flexible grid spring that slides into slots on the hubs, providing a unique "resiliency" that can absorb up to 30% of peak shock loads.

Universal Joint

Universal Joints (including Telescopic Universal Joints) are used to connect two shafts whose axes are inclined at an angle to each other. They allow for the transmission of power through a wide range of motion and are indispensable in systems where the distance between shafts may change during operation.
