Function of Jaw Couplings


Elastomer insert for Jaw Couplings

Elastomer insert for Couplings
The equalizing ellement of an Jaw (EK) coupling is the elastomer insert.
It transmits the torque without backlash and vibration.

The elastomer insert defines the features of the entire coupling and/or of the entire drive system.

The coupling is backlash free due to pretensioning of the elastomer insert between the two coupling halves.

The Servomax-Coupling compensates for lateral, angular and axial misalignment.
