Shafting System Hydraulic Coupling
The shaft coupling is the component which joins the propeller shaft to the gearbox output flange. Some are bolted directly to the gearbox but many installers use a flexible couple, such as R&D flexible couplings, which would then bolt to the gearbox. Our range includes couplings for most popular transmission types, bored for imperial or metric shafts.
Besides the standard coupling, the Solid Half Coupling, Clamp on or Split Half Coupling, Bobbin Coupling and Coupling Adapters are also available.
Marine shaft hydraulic coupling
The shaft coupling is the component to be joined the propeller shaft and the gearbox output flange.
Some are bolted directly to the gearbox but many users adopt a flexible couplings like R&D flexible couplings.
In general, there are some types of shaft coupling as following:
Standard coupling
Solid Half Coupling
Clamp on or split half coupling
Bobbin Coupling
Coupling adapter
