CENTAFLEX series AR flexible coupling features a split through one of its axial aluminum inserts, allowing quick installation of replacement coupling element without disturbing driver and driven components’ mounting alignment. Available in sizes 025 to 600, it allows for simple radial exchange of coupling element for any close coupled system through 2000 hp at 1750 rpm rating — 70,800 lb-in. nominal torque.
