GUARDEX™ Coupling is a superior design of a torsionally stiff gear coupling with a specially designed molded nylon sleeve. Its compact and lightweight design yields high torque, low inertia and minimum shaft gap to close-coupled applications.
- Minimum fit-up backlash and no internal frictional losses or heat build-up
- Nylon and metal components allow operation in high ambients without lubrication or maintenance
- Blind assembly and slip-together make for easy inspection and adjustment without disassembly
- Nylon sleeves resist dirt, moisture, most chemicals and petroleum products
- There are no seals or retainers to maintain and they don't need lubrication
- 1/2HP to 600HP
- 1/4" to 4-7/8" Bores
