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.
Engineering advancements that make the Jaw Coupling & Spider Element the smarter, longer-lasting choice.
Find the right plummer block for your specific application and environment.
| Selection Factor | Best Coupling Choice | Why Choose This? |
|---|---|---|
| Fail-Safe Operation | Jaw (Spider) | If the spider element wears out, the metal jaws lock to prevent a total stop (temporary protection). |
