R & D Marine - Flexible Shaft Coupling

Enhance Your Marine Adventure with R&D Flexible Shaft Coupling

Experience unmatched performance and reliability with the R&D Flexible Shaft Coupling, designed for 4" B/W, Hurth with a 5HP/100RPM capacity. Crafted from a new type of tough, resilient polyurethane, this coupling boasts a contoured flexible disc that not only accommodates bolt head clearance but also ensures free flexion to correct temporary misalignments caused by the engine or boat structure flexing. This innovative design absorbs forward and reverse thrust in compression, ensuring smooth operation and protection for your boat's drivetrain. In the rare case of a disc failure, the fail-safe steel straps maintain drive functionality, making this coupling an essential upgrade for any marine vessel.

• Molded from durable, new-type polyurethane for resilience and flexibility
• Contoured disc design allows for free flexion and easy bolt head accommodation
• Fail-safe feature through steel straps ensures drive maintenance in all conditions
• Reduces drivetrain noise and vibration for a quieter operation
• Protects against shock loads from gear changes or underwater impacts

Technical Precision for Peace of Mind

The R&D Flexible Shaft Coupling introduces a fail-safe mechanism that significantly enhances your boat's drivetrain integrity. Engineered to absorb shock loads resulting from sudden gear changes or propeller contact with submerged objects, it effectively prevents costly drivetrain repairs. The polyurethane disc, designed to distort under light shock loads, acts as a sacrificial component in extreme conditions, while the metal compression straps guarantee continuous functionality. Its versatility in accommodating various horsepower requirements makes it an indispensable tool for boating enthusiasts and professionals alike.

Versatile Fit for Every Voyage
