The grid is the wearing member of a Steelflex coupling and
it is a fraction of the complete coupling cost. Tapered grids

them to be dropped in without the need to replace hubs or

required with gear couplings and many elastomer designs.

Falk Steelflex Grid Couplings
A general purpose, lubricated design that combines the economy and high torque capacity of a gear coupling with the torsional flexibility
of an elastomer coupling. Backed by a 5–year lubrication warranty, Falk Steelflex couplings require no periodic maintenance when lubricated with
Falk LTG (Long Term Grease) at installation. Steelflex offers the simplest, most cost effective solution for moderate to high torque connections.

Hassle-Free Retrofits
Close-coupled type models are designed to replace

gear or grid couplings choose low maintenance type FDC20
models.
For wider gap applications, type FD-A or FD-N spacer and
floating shaft models replace existing general purpose spacer and
floating shaft couplings.
Gear-to-disc floating shaft conversions provide a non-lubricated,
maintenance-free solution for gear coupling floating shaft

No Lubrication
Freedom couplings are built with no moving parts, So there is no MORE>
need for lubrication, and productive time isn't wasted. What's
more, you don't have to worry about grease contamination or
disposal. Freedom couplings are friendly to the environment.
Low Maintenance
Easy installation starts it all. Freedom couplings are designed so
you can forget them. They require little routine service, and can be
visually inspected. Single blade (closed-coupled) and unitized
(spacer) can be replaced without moving connected equipment.
That's a real time saver on the floor.

A standard floating shaft assembly consists of two standard single Rigid Hubs on Floating Shaft (FRRF)
engagement couplings, two gap discs and a connecting shaft.
