We distribute Radicon couplings

Couplings are used to join two rotating shafts for efficient transmission of mechanical power. Although the shafts are accurately aligned at the time of installation, it is likely that during the operation the alignment may get disturbed due to setting of foundation, thermal expansion, shaft deflection, wearing out of other parts, improper maintenance and many more reasons. Radicon couplings provide a better solution to compensate or minimize the effect of misalignment.

Elflex Pin & Bush Couplings

Radicon Elflex Pin and Bush Couplings are cushioned drive type couplings that transmit the torque through rubber bushes which have an excellent capacity to absorb shocks. A barrel shape of the bushes guarantees a uniform distribution of loads, even in case of misalignment, thus limiting the bending moment resulting from the radial force on the pins. Bushes are composed of a NBR element containing natural rubber. The hardness of the rubber element is 72°Shore A.

Nylicon Gear Couplings

Radicon nylicon gear couplings

Nylicon Gear Couplings from Radicon are able to compensate for all types of shaft misalignment and allow a small amount of end float. They are easy to assemble and require no maintenance which ensures they provide a high quality service in the most inhospitable environments.Type 600 are available in three sizes and are ideal for small power drives with bores sizes up to 55mm diameter and a basic rated torque up to 463 Nm. Thermosetting plastic sleeves provide non-conductive assemblies. Staggered internal teeth ensure uniform loading and an internal central buffer ring between the two hubs promotes axial location giving protection to the gear teeth.

Elign Gear Couplings

Radicon's Elign Gear Couplings are ideally suited for wide range of application in the entire field of drive technology. This range is first and foremost dependable and provides quality efficient operation in high torque applications. They consist of hubs with multi crowned teeth at flank, tip and teeth. The Elign Gear Couplings are simple, compact and light unit for transmitting the same power when compared to the couplings of similar capacity available in the market. It is manufactured out of tested quality forged carbon steel and passes through a number of quality checks.

Cone Ring Couplings

Radicon cone ring couplings

Radicon Cone Ring Couplings offer vastly improved torsional flexibility with a limited freedom of axial movement because of their sequence of rubber ‘conical section’ rings. Types 611 and 613 are available with bore sizes up to 170mm diameter and a basic rated torque up to 23500 Nm. They accommodate all types of shaft misalignment met in normal operation, being a development of the old pin and bush design that it resembles in its simplicity and ease of dismantling. It differs fundamentally in the way its resilient material behaves by substituting the parallel bush with the rubber ‘conical section’ rings.
