Coupling, Elastic – Flector
Coupling, Elastic Flector is a flexible shaft coupling from AMC Mecanocaucho, distributed in Australia by Getzner Vibration Solutions. It transmits torque between two shafts while absorbing vibration and accommodating shaft misalignment, reducing noise and mechanical fatigue in rotating machinery.
Specifications
- Models available: 4MKG, 9MKG, 16MKG, 25MKG, 35MKG, 50MKG, 70MKG
- Torque range: 4 m.kg to 70 m.kg (nominal, depending on model)
- Maximum speed: 6,000 RPM (4MKG) to 2,400 RPM (70MKG)
- Outer diameter range: 91 mm to 263 mm
- Material: Rubber-metal bonded construction
- Weight range: 0.227 kg to 3.309 kg (depending on model)
Applications
Used in mechanical drive systems where vibration isolation and torque transmission are both required, including pumps, compressors, fans, and industrial machinery. Suited to applications where shaft misalignment or torsional vibration could otherwise cause bearing wear or structural fatigue.
Frequently asked questions
What size Flector coupling do I need?
Selection depends on the torque to be transmitted and the operating speed. The range covers nominal torques from 4 m.kg to 70 m.kg across seven models, with maximum speeds from 2,400 to 6,000 RPM.
Does the Flector coupling require lubrication?
The rubber-metal bonded construction does not require lubrication, as the rubber element absorbs shock and vibration without contact between metal mating surfaces.
Can the Flector accommodate shaft misalignment?
Yes. The flexible rubber element allows the coupling to accommodate angular and parallel shaft misalignment, reducing transmitted vibration and mechanical noise in connected equipment.
