Taper Grid Coupling Grid Element

• Grid assembly for taper grid coupling.
• Grid in light load, the grid bears near the outer edges of the hub teeth and the long span between the points of contact remains flexible under load variations.
• Grid in normal load, as the load increases, the distance between the contact points on the hub teeth is shortened, but a free span still remains flexible for shock loads.
• Grid in shock load, the coupling is flexible within its rated power capactity.
• Under extreme overloads, the grid bears and transmits full load on the hub teeth directly.

About KCP Taper Grid Coupling

• Taper Grid Couplings are recognizable due to their unique steel flexible grid running through the tapered hubs.
• The benefits of the Grid Coupling are reduced vibration and shock loads.
• The compact size of shaft-to-shaft couplings.
• Handle torque capacity due to high strength hardened alloy steel construction
• Deflect torsionally for normal shock or vibratory loads.
• Capacity for misalignment without producing the detrimental side loads.
• Designed with a trapezoidal cross-section and tempered for spring hardness.
• Increase in strength rating and provide reserve strength for a longer part life.
• Easy to fit the trapezoidal grids into the slots of the hub and short time of installation.
• Free to rock, pivot, and float.
