B-FLEX COUPLINGS RB

Rathi B-FLEX couplings consist of a set

of resilient BARREL shaped bushes with
pins & nuts and two flanged hubs of
graded cast iron.
These special BARREL shaped bushes
permit the MISALIGNMENT IN ALL
DIRECTIONS and give extra torsional
flexibility as compared to plain bushes.
These couplings are suitable for general
engineering application requiring
reliable power transmission even under
conditions of shaft misalignments which
are often unavoidable.

F E A T U R E S

SIMPLICITY OF CONSTRUCTION SIMPLE / EASY MAINTENANCE

Easy to assemble & disassemble. Flanged hub No complicated mechanism to demand adjustment
can be withdrawn upwards without disturbing or maintenance. Inspection and replacement of
original alignment. bushes is easy and bushes can be quickly fitted
without dismantling or moving either of coupled
VARYING STIFFNESS CHARACTERISTICS shafts.
Special barrel shaped bushes provide progressively
increasing stiffness characteristics, hence ensure LOW OPERATIONAL COST
effective shocks & vibration absorption. Only wear part is low cost bushes which make
coupling economical in long run.
NO LUBRICATION
B-FLEX couplings never require lubrication of any SMOOTH & QUIET OPERATION
kind. Reduces vibration & noise arising from severe
torque fluctuations.
