1. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Softex
®
coupling is a torsionally flexible, puncture-
proof three part claw coupling.
Due to the elastic gear ring, it enables to dampen im-
pacts, torsional vibrations, as well as noises.
Furthermore, the gear ring has a high resistance, elastici-
ty as well as good resistance to oils, greases, a variety of
solvents, ozone and influences of the weather.
Due to the construction of the coupling (hub / elastic
gear ring / hub), an angular resp. a radial misalignment
of the shafts to be connected as well as expansions will
be compensated.
The operating temperatures are between -50°C and
+120°C, depending on the type of gear ring. Short term
temperature peaks up to +150°C are admissible.
