The simple compact and smooth design of the CENTAFLEX-X series means couplings are low-weight and low-inertia. This high-performance design offers a high permissible speed, large permissible bores, and even transmission of torque. The coupling is maintenance-free and fail-safe. Elements of the coupling can be dismantled without axial displacement. The drive is easily discounted and rotated without dismantling. No axial reaction forces are imposed on the shaft and bearing during torque transmission. The element is air-flushed all around, conducting away heat and ensuring cool operation even under extreme conditions. A flexible element of heavy-duty plastic with pressed-in steel bushes and bending elasticity properties allow for compensation of axial and angular misalignments. When used as a driveshaft, the CENTAFLEX-X offers radial flexibility as well. With an oil-resistant element, the CENTAFLEX-X is suitable for many heavy-duty applications in industrial and motion control applications.
