Tyre Couplings RLU

Your Advantages

The RINGFEDER^® Tyre Couplings of the RLU series are robust, flexible couplings for industrial applications with high demands on flexibility and reliability. The split tyre profile is connected to a metal holder and is mounted radially on the hubs - this enables quick and easy assembly and disassembly without having to move adjacent machine components.

The RLU coupling transmits the torque via shear in the flexible element and is ideal for compensating angular, parallel and axial misalignments. The polyurethane tyre offers high strength, durability and resistance to fatigue. The coupling can optionally be fitted with taper-lock bushes. Different hub arrangements enable variable shaft distances.

Tyre Couplings of the RINGFEDER^® RLU series are particularly convincing due to the following features:

• Trosionally soft
• Split tyre design
• Easy maintenance
• Variable distance between shaft ends
