RLES RRS Series Jaw Coupling

Product Overview

The RLES RRS Series Jaw Coupling is a high-performance flexible coupling designed to provide reliable torque transmission with enhanced shaft mounting flexibility and ease of installation. It is specifically engineered for applications where secure fitment, extended shaft distance and consistent performance are essential.

The RRS Series combines the proven jaw coupling principle with optimized hub configurations, offering improved assembly convenience and dependable shaft connection. Its elastomeric spider element ensures effective shock absorption, vibration damping, and misalignment compensation.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Optimized Hub Design

    Specially engineered hub configuration ensures secure shaft mounting with improved ease of installation and removal.

  • No Metal-to-Metal Contact

    The elastomeric spider prevents direct hub contact, reducing wear, noise, and extending operational life.

  • High Misalignment Capability

    Accommodates angular and parallel misalignment, minimizing stress on connected equipment.

  • Maintenance-Free Operation

    No lubrication required, ensuring cost-effective and hassle-free performance.

  • Excellent Shock & Vibration Damping

    Reduces torsional vibrations and absorbs impact loads, protecting machinery.

  • Easy Assembly & Replacement

    Simplified design allows quick installation and easy spider replacement, reducing downtime.

Construction & Working Principle

Components:
Metallic Hubs (RRS Type)
Precision-engineered hubs designed for secure shaft fitment and ease of handling. Manufactured from high-quality cast iron or Aluminium.

Elastomeric Spider (Flex Element)
Available in multiple materials:
• NBR (Buna-N) – High flexibility and damping
• Polyurethane – Higher torque and wear resistance
• Hytrel® – Suitable for high temperature and high torque applications

Working Principle:
Torque is transmitted through the compression of the elastomeric spider between the jaws of the two hubs. The RRS hub design ensures a firm and reliable shaft connection, while the elastomer absorbs shocks and accommodates misalignment for smooth operation.

Advantages
• Reliable and consistent torque transmission
• Compact design suitable for space-limited applications
• Easy installation and reduced maintenance effort
• Long service life with minimal wear
• Versatile solution for a wide range of industrial applications
