Flender highly flexible couplings are well-suited to connect asymmetrically operating machines. They are used preferably in periodically stimulated systems. Highly flexible, backlash-free tire coupling – Nominal torque range from TKN = 1,600 Nm up to 90,000 Nm with 9 sizes – Temperature range: from –40 °C to +80 °C
Flexible and adaptable
Owing to its low torsional stiffness and damping properties the Flender highly flexible couplings are very well suited to connecting machines with considerably non-uniform torque characteristics. Types with a fail-safe device between the flexible rings ensure emergency operation if the flexible rings are destroyed.

Highly flexible, backlash-free tire coupling – Nominal torque range from TKN = 24 Nm up to 14,500 Nm with 15 sizes – Temperature range: from –50 °C to +50 °C for natural rubber materials, from –15 °C to +70 °C for chloroprene rubber
Flexible and adaptable
Flender highly flexible couplings ELPEX-B transmit torques without circumferential backlash in machines with non-uniform torque characteristics. They are resistant to wear and maintenance-free. The hubs of the ELPEX-B couplings are made of high-quality cast iron or steel. The torque is transmitted by a flexible tire reinforced with a cord ply.
Your benefits at a glance

Independent of direction of rotation (suitable for reversing operation)
The rubber tire can be replaced easily without the need to move the coupled machines
Easy mounting on the shafts is possible with taper bushes

Highly flexible rubber disk coupling to connect machines with high torque fluctuations – Nominal torque range from TKN = 330 Nm up to 63,000 Nm with 17 sizes – Temperature range: from –40 °C to +120 °C
Flexible and adaptable
Owing to its low torsional rigidity and damping properties the Flender highly flexible couplings ELPEX-S are very well suited to connecting machines with considerably non-uniform torque characteristics. The inside diameter of the rubber disk element is vulcanized on a flange. ELPEX-S couplings are designed as a flange/shaft connection or shaft/shaft connection as standard. The hub can take a taper bush.
