HRC Coupling FAQ Section
Q: What maintenance does HRC Coupling require?
A: HRC Couplings are designed for minimal maintenance. We recommend visual inspections every 3 months and lubrication of moving parts annually. In harsh environments, increase inspection frequency. The elastomer elements typically last 3-5 years depending on operating conditions.
Q: Can HRC Couplings compensate for parallel misalignment?
A: Yes, HRC Couplings excel at handling parallel misalignment up to 0.3mm per 100mm of coupling diameter. The unique design combines radial flexibility with torsional stiffness, making them ideal for applications where perfect alignment isn't feasible.
Advanced Features
- Torsionally stiff design minimizes backlash
- Vibration damping reduces equipment fatigue
- Fail-safe construction prevents catastrophic failure
- Corrosion-resistant options for marine applications
