Torque limiting coupling with slip detection
Eaton’s torque limiting coupling, the Airflex, increases torque by 25% and provides an automatic slip detection system to help decrease maintenance costs and downtime during operation. Designed to withstand high torque spikes found in grinding mills and heavy duty variable frequency drive applications, the Airflex Torque Limiting Coupling uses automatic reset and re-engage and automatic […]
Stainless Steel Couplings Deliver Non-Spill Connections
The FD89 – 2000 Series couplings meet ISO 16028 dimensional requirements. These stainless steel quick-disconnect/non-spill couplings feature standard anti-extrusion Teflon® seals and Viton® O-rings. “FD89 couplings provide a globally interchangeable solution for a variety of applications that require both corrosion resistance and long product life,” explained Joseph E. Dzierwa, Eaton product manager, connectors. “They’re machined […]
