Coupling for diesel hydraulic drives
21 April 2016
The new CENTAFLEX-KF is a single piece lightweight flexible coupling for diesel hydraulic drives and enhances the range of Centa couplings for use in plant, crushers and other construction equipment.
Complementing the CENTAFLEX-KE, the new CENTAFLEX-KF offers high torsional stiffness and cost efficient operation, overcomes radial misalignment and has a short-term resilience to high temperatures of up to 120°C. This is of particular benefit if the need to operate in sealed machines is a consideration.
The coupling consists of a lasered metal adapter plate for the flywheel connection, with a secondary flange made of moulded reinforced plastic, bonded to an extremely strong layer of vulcanised, temperature resistant rubber.
