Product Overview
The jaw coupling is a type of flexible coupling commonly used in mechanical power transmission applications. It features two hubs with three jaws each, which are connected by an elastomeric element.
Features of Jaw Coupling
- Flexible and torsionally soft
- Easy to install and maintain
- High torque capacity
- Compensates for angular and parallel misalignment
- Dampens vibration and shock loads
Applications
The jaw coupling is ideal for applications that require vibration dampening, such as pumps, compressors, and conveyors. Its advantages include:
- Smooth power transmission
- Reduced wear on connected equipment
- Long service life
- Easy replacement of elastomeric element
- Cost-effective solution
Working Principle

The jaw coupling works by transmitting torque from one hub to the other through the elastomeric element. The jaws provide flexibility to accommodate misalignment and dampen vibrations.
Choosing the Right Jaw Coupling
- Consider torque requirements
- Evaluate shaft sizes and speeds
- Check for misalignment conditions
- Select the appropriate elastomeric material
- Ensure proper hub fitment

Maintenance of Jaw Coupling
Proper maintenance of jaw coupling is essential to ensure efficient operation and prolong its service life. Regular inspection, lubrication, and alignment checks are recommended to prevent premature failure and costly downtime.
