Couplings
Gear Couplings
Gear couplings pass very high torque through meshing teeth on the hubs and sleeves. They tolerate angular misalignment and are used in heavy industry. They need lubrication and periodic inspection.
- Very high torque for size
- Tolerates angular misalignment
- Greased teeth for long life

Technical reference
Choosing a coupling type
| Coupling | Torsionally flexible | Handles misalignment | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jaw (spider) | Yes | Moderate | Motors to pumps, small conveyors, compressors |
| Pin and bush | Yes | Moderate | Pumps, fans, general machinery |
| Tyre | Yes | High | Crushers, mills, shock-loaded drives |
| Grid | Yes | Moderate | Conveyors, mixers, heavy shock loads |
| Gear | No | Angular, high torque | Steel mills, cement kilns, heavy drives |
| Chain | Limited | Small | Medium-speed drives with easy chain replacement |
| Disc | No | Angular | High-speed, precise drives, compressors |
| Fluid | Yes | Moderate | Soft starting of conveyors and crushers |
| Rigid sleeve / flange | No | None (shafts must be aligned) | Aligned shafts, vertical pumps |
General guidance. Final selection depends on torque, speed, shaft sizes, misalignment and service factor.
