The MINIFLEX coupling is designed with the following features:

– Push fit assembly.
– Compact, smooth cylindrical shape without protrusions.
– The flexible element is precompressed during assembly, which extends the range of operating conditions where the rubber is not subject to tension.

Advantages:

– Highly effective attenuation of cyclic irregularities and peaks in the torque.
– Exceptionally long-life ensured by precompressing the flexible element.
– Tolerance to large misalignment: avoids the need for precise alignment of the machines to be coupled.

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the coupling should not be subjected to axial tension which might cause the flexible element to slip from the drive segment on the flange.
