The TORSOFLEX coupling is designed with the following features:

– The rubber ring is precompressed to provide high torsional flexibility.
– Smooth, compact, cylindrical shape without protrusion.
– Radial disassembly without moving the coupled machines (the flexible element should be compressed axially using clamps).

Advantages:

– Very high resistance to oscillation.
– High rotational speed.

Recommendation:

As the TORSOFLEX coupling is usually used at high speed, the assembly must be well aligned.
