Description

LF Torsional couplings have been designed with a unique and highly versatile elastomeric element. They can be easily integrated into various coupling configurations to meet numerous application requirements.

These flexible couplings are available in various materials depending on the damping characteristics of the coupling in order to adjust the critical speed of the systems to the operating speed of the application. The element can be connected axially to a flywheel adapter plate or a flanged hub, and radially to a central cylindrical hub using the appropriate bolts. Axial bolt styles include hollow head bolts with a special dry adhesive, or S-type bolts, which are very similar to pins. Radial bolts are used to connect the element to a cylindrical hub. This unique design is remarkably simple and highly effective, giving LF torsional couplings unmatched performance characteristics.

The selection of couplings should be verified by means of a torsional vibration analysis (TVA) of the system. (You will find the information necessary to perform a TVA in the downloadable catalog.)
