The industry standard for demanding applications
Falk Steelflex® couplings are specified in many of the most demanding applications in the world. They are exposed to the dust within cement and coal handling facilities, and the extreme temperatures of desert and arctic mines all while operating under demanding torque conditions.

The high-impact loads placed on conveyors, shredders and mixers will push the limits on any coupling. The vibratory loads on high-speed applications such as pumps or compressors can cause some couplings to break down. Falk Steelflex couplings can reduce the impact of these loads on your equipment by up to 30 percent. To become the standard in these industries you need to be tough.

Unsurpassed strength
The leading causes of coupling failure are misalignment and high-impact and vibratory loads. Third party testing has shown that Falk Steelflex couplings are superior to Dodge or Lovejoy branded grid coupling products. 

Falk Steelflex is:

• Up to 16 times more durable in impact loading applications
• Capable of surviving up to two times the stated misalignment limits

While these tests were conducted under extreme conditions, high loads and high misalignment are very common. Equipment is commonly pushed beyond the design limits, and misalignment is often present due to human error or natural settling. These test results are the reason Falk Steelflex has the largest installed base of any grid coupling in the world.
