Flexible coupling: stainless steel disc coupling for heavy duty applications
max. 468 000 Nm | Metastream® TLK/TLC series John Crane

Metastream® TLK coupling range, pioneered by John Crane Flexibox, is particularly suited for high torque electric motor, or turbine drives in critical process industry, marine, and power generation. Torque is transmitted through two sets of membranes, separated by a spacer element, and protected by two adaptable guard rings in a pre-assembled transmission unit.

The coupling provides a good level of angular, lateral and axial misalignment, while maintaining a high level of balance integrity. Standard options for spark resistance, electrical insulation, limited end float, and torque limiting available. The TLK utilises all metric fasteners.
