RLN Series Jaw Coupling

Product Overview

The RLN Series Jaw Couplings (A, B, H Types) are versatile and reliable flexible couplings designed for high-performance torque transmission across diverse industrial applications. These couplings are engineered to provide secure shaft connection, vibration damping, shock absorption, and misalignment compensation.

The RLN family includes multiple variants (A, B, and H types) to suit different torque, bore, and operational requirements, making them ideal for applications where flexibility, reliability, and ease of maintenance are essential.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Multiple Variants (A / B / H)

    RLN Series Variant Overview
    A Type: Compact design for general-purpose applications
    B Type: Enhanced torque capacity with larger bore options
    H Type: Heavy-duty variant for high torque with Spacer options

  • Reliable Torque Transmission

    Ensures consistent power transfer across shafts while absorbing dynamic loads.

  • High Misalignment Capability

    Accommodates angular and parallel misalignment, protecting connected shafts and bearings.

  • Shock & Vibration Damping

    Elastomeric spider absorbs shocks and reduces torsional vibrations for smooth operation.

  • No Metal-to-Metal Contact

    Prevents direct hub contact, reducing wear, noise, and maintenance needs.

  • Maintenance-Free Operation

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

  • Easy Installation & Replacement

    Simplified hub and elastomer design allows quick installation and element replacement, minimizing downtime.

Construction & Working Principle

Components:
Metallic Hubs (A / B / H Types)
High-quality cast iron or steel, engineered for secure shaft mounting and torque transmission.

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

Optional Spacer / Retaining Elements
For easier maintenance or specific installation requirements.

Working Principle:
Torque is transmitted through the compression of the elastomeric spider between the jaws of the hubs. The flexible element absorbs shocks and accommodates misalignment, while the hub type (A, B, or H) determines the torque capacity and shaft connection style.

Advantages
• Multiple variants for diverse torque and operational needs
• Reliable and flexible coupling for industrial machinery
• Easy maintenance and quick element replacement
• Shock and vibration absorption for equipment protection
• Long service life with minimal wear

Applications
