Rotex Series Elastomeric Jaw Coupling, SDS-branded

Rotex Elastomeric Jaw Couplings ROTEX

Rotex-type elastomeric jaw coupling for motor-to-gearbox connections in crane, metallurgy and general-industry drive trains. Torque is transmitted through a replaceable polyurethane spider element, compensating radial, angular and axial shaft misalignment and damping shock loads. Manufactured at our partner facility in China under the SDS label and delivered to Russia, custom-matched to shaft diameters, transmitted torque and spider hardness (64 / 80 / 92 / 98 Sh A). Pictured: Rotex 42, 55×75 / 55×75 bore configuration (55 mm shafts on both ends).
