FLEXIBLECOUPLINGSPatent No. 15421/B 67Flexible homokinetic "G" coupling consist of two metallic half-jointswith precision-tooled, circular, sectioned hollows in which special shock-absorbers areplaced. These shock-absorbers are heat, acid and oil-resistant."G" couplings can operate vertically, horizontally and set at an inclineand comfortably tolerate changes or reversals in charge. The units are built in series sothe variouscomponents can easily be interchanged. The "G22"cast-iron normally used in their construction offers high mechanical resistance and isparticularly suited to moments of high torque, thereby also garanteeing durability."G" couplings permit a full and secure transmission movement between theshafts, effectively absorbing impacts and torque stress. Their load-bearing capacity isensured by the shock-absorbers, which work by compression rather than flection. Theshock-absorbers are linked to the couplings by means of a special resin; this resin ismore reliable than standard commercial resisns because it is resistant to oil,salt-erosion and atmospheric agents.On request the couplings can be supplied in spheroidal "GS" cast-iron andin addition to supplying standard size models, we can also produce special made-to-ordercouplings to non-standard measurements."G" couplings are resistant to oil, grease, dirt, sand and humidity.HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHTCOUPLING
