Gear Couplings

The Gear coupling offers the High torque carrying capacity of a steel coupling. it uses gear teeth to transmit the torque from one shaft to the next.

Flanged Gear Coupling - Lovejoy

'F' Type (Flex - Flex)
Double engagement provides for parallel misalignment, angular misalignment and end float with the ability to accommodate close coupled application requirements.

'FFR' Type (Flex - Rigid)
Single engagement accommodates angular misalignment only and does not allow for parallel misalignment. This design consists of a flexible and rigid half, most commonly used in floating shaft applications to solve remote drive and excessive misalignment problems.

FA couplings in 4140 Alloy Steel, and FLA couplings with Metal Labyrinth Seals are also available.

Flanged Gear Coupling - Woo Chang

'GDE' Double Engagement
Double engagement provides for parallel misalignment, angular misalignment and end float with the ability to accommodate close coupled application requirements.

'GSE' Single Engagement 
Single engagement accommodates angular misalignment only and does not allow for parallel misalignment. This design consists of a flexible and rigid half, most commonly used in floating shaft applications to solve remote drive and excessive misalignment problems.

'GRC' Rigid Coupling
The GRC coupling consists of 2 rigid hubs and high tensile machine bolts. The simple construction means that the coupling is lubrication and maintenance free. Rigid couplings are ideal for applications where there is no misalignment. 

'GSCD' Gear Spacer Coupling
This Double Engagement Spacer Coupling with Drop-out Spacers is suitable to take misalignment over increased distances between shaft ends. It is also able to compensate for Parallel and Angular misalignment.

Continuous Sleeve Gear Coupling

'C' Type (Flex - Flex)
The 'C' type is the basis for all types of Lovejoy Sier-Bath continuous sleeve flexible gear couplings. It is suitable for most applications. Gear teeth are precision cut, 20° pressure angle with minimum backlash, and are smaller for even distribution of load, greater capacity and longer life.

'CFR' Type (Flex - Rigid)
The flex - rigid gear coupling consists of a flexible hub and a rigid hub with a single sleeve. The flexible hub is a standard hub from a flex-flex coupling. The rigid hub uses a splined type hub. The flex-rigid coupling accommodates angular misalignment only and does not allow for parallel misalignment.

SITEX 2 piece Gear coupling

This coupling is based on the standard SITEX Gear Coupling but uses a steel sleeve instead of a Polyamide one. It uses the Optigear crown gear tooth, to allow greater surface contact on the tooth and greater misalignment. This coupling is a 2 piece with one male hub and 1 female sleeve. A seal is attached to the hub to hold in the coupling grease. Much stronger than the Polyamide coupling, this coupling is capable of transmitting up to 10,000Nm

SITEX 3 piece Gear Coupling

This coupling is based on the standard SITEX Gear Coupling but uses a steel sleeve instead of a Polyamide one. It uses the Optigear crown gear tooth, to allow greater surface contact on the tooth and greater misalignment. A seal is attached to the sleeve on each side of the coupling to hold in the coupling grease. Much stronger than the Polyamide coupling this coupling, is capable of transmitting up to 34,000Nm
