CENTAFLEX Series R

The CENTAFLEX Series R offers progressive torsional charcteristics with very low stiffness at low speed/torque, increasing to moderate stiffness at higher speed/torque. This simple, reliable roller insert coupling is suited for many heavy-duty marine and industrial drives, including most close coupled marine transmissions. The patented CENTAFLEX-R design shifts torsional resonance to prevent gear chatter and reduce vibration. Compressed rubber rollers between cams are highly engineered and backed by extensive testing, with no bonding. Made from temperature-resistant elastomeric materials, the couplings are suitable for enclosed housing mounting environments. Higher temperature-tolerant and oil-resistant rubber rollers are also available as an option. Suitable for blind fitting in bell housings, the design is an easy-to-maintain, economically sound solution.
