R+W – Disc Pack Couplings

R+W disc pack couplings have six hole plates made of highly elastic spring steel in their standard design. High strength bolts are used for fastening the disc packs to their end hubs and spacers, so that torque transmission is made by friction force. This prevents micro movements within the joints and helps to increse overall torsional stiffness. The individual disc packs are capable of compensating for angular and axial misalignment only. Dual flex versions can also compensate for lateral misalignment.
