A general purpose, lubricated design that combines the economy and high torque capacity of a gear coupling with the torsional flexibility
of an elastomer coupling. Backed by a 5–year lubrication warranty, Falk Steelflex couplings require no periodic maintenance when
lubricated with Falk LTG (Long Term Grease) at installation. Featuring 25 sizes, Stelflex couplings can accommodate torque loads of
932 000 (Nm) and shaft diameters of 508 millimeters.
A double flexing, close-coupled For use on line shaft applications. Can
design for use in four bearing be used in place of single engagement
systems. Features a horizontally split gear couplings to provide torsional
cover which allows for grid resiliency and lower overall operating
replacement without the movement of cost.

WARNING! Mixing grid coupling components from different manufacturers may cause premature
failure and possible personal injury or property damage from flying debris.
