The Atra-Flex T-flex flexible coupling from ATR Sales absorbs extreme torsional shock and vibration, while accommodating angular, parallel and axial misalignment without generating reactionary forces. Sizes are available to transmit torque loads from 60 in./lb to over 3.24 million in./lb. No lubrication or routine maintenance is required. Available in a range of hardness ratings and resistant to chemicals and weather, the rugged polyurethane insert is the only spare part and can be replaced in minutes without having to move the equipment or the shaft hubs. Standard inserts have a temperature range from minus 50C (-60F) to plus 93C (200F) with high-temperature inserts available for over 177C (350F). Coupling types include close coupled, spacer types, limited end float, slide, floating shaft, flywheel, brake wheel, brake disc, and made-to-order engineered couplings.
