SKF Flexible Coupling Flector 44.5mm

Managing two slightly misaligned shafts so they still transmit torque is easy with the right kit. This flexible coupling flector from SKF sits between two hubs to act like a cushion. It dampens vibrations and prevents shock loading, which is when the misalignment causes a sudden increase of load, creating a hammering effect. The flector helps prevent problems such as premature bearing, seal, shaft or coupling failure, overheating, or foundation screws coming loose. It's designed for a 44.5mm diameter shaft, often found in pumps, compressors and other rotating equipment.
