BoWex-ELASTIC® DBP
Flange coupling for
I. C.-engines
BoWex® FLE-PA couplings are
torsionally rigid curved-tooth flange
couplings, made from a combination
of nylon and steel, for diesel engine
drives in combination with hydraulic
pumps.
The FLE-PA mounting flange is made
from glass fiber reinforced polyamide
with high mechanical stability and
thermal strength.
The coupling hub with external
curved teeth is made from steel.
The BoWex® FLE-PA allows an
extremely short installation space.
Apart from that it is easy to assemble
without any additional tools for
alignment.

BoWex-FLE-PA
BoWex
BoWex-ELASTIC® is highly flexible,
combining the benefits of the well-
approved BoWex® system with the
suppleness of a highly flexible coup-
ling in compact design. Torsional vi-
brations and shock loads that may oc-
cur are dampened and reduced.
The BoWex-ELASTIC® consists of a
highly flexible, annular rubber element
from temperature-resistant natural
caoutchouc, stressed for torque-to-
bore ratio, and a BoWex® coupling
hub to be plugged-in axially.

Flange coupling for I.C.-engines technology

Types FLE-PA No. 016 and BoWex-ELASTIC® No. 055

High standards in quality and design are the basis for
all KTR products. KTR couplings for I. C.-engines are
subject to particularly strict criteria for the right balancing
of vibrations in a drive system.
The selection of couplings in combination with I.C.-
engines requires a certain basic knowledge and some
experience. Thus, the selection of the wrong coupling may
cause torsional vibrations in the drive system which would
result in an early failure of the coupling and other drive
components. EDP calculation programs for the coupling
selection allow us to assure our customers
of a safe and long-term operation of the couplings.
The team of KTR design engineers is available for our cu-
stomers to solve special problems. Many users of
KTR couplings all over the world benefit from this
know-how. Advice seeking to solve problems and
support will characterize our efficiency in the future,
too.
In the range of I. C.-engines we distinguish between
two coupling systems which are necessary for an
optimum and safe adaptation to the market conditions
for drives:
– The torsionally stiff BoWex FLE-PA flange coupling
for the use in mobile hydraulics for a direct drive
of hydraulic pumps.
– The highly flexible BoWex-ELASTIC HE coupling
for drives subject to dangerous torsional vibrations.

Coupling selection
1. BoWex-ELASTIC® couplings should be selected in accordance with DIN 740 part 2. The coupling must be sufficiently sized to ensure that the

maximum permissible coupling load is not exceeded in any operating condition. It is therefore necessary to compare the actual loads with the
permissible rated parameters of the coupling according to tables 1.1 - 1.4 listed below.
For drives subject to dangerous torsional vibrations it is necessary for a safe operation to review the drive by means of a torsional
