ORPEX
Manufacturer: OptibeltThe optibelt ORPEX is a torsionally flexible, fail-safe pin coupling in cast iron or steel with elastomer buffers. REEL supplies the WN and WS versions.
The ORPEX is an elastic pin coupling: pins with elastomer buffers transmit torque between the two coupling halves. The buffers engage with the bores of the opposite flange and transmit the torque while dampening torque shocks and torsional vibration and accommodating angular, parallel and axial misalignment between the shafts.
The coupling is torsionally flexible and fail-safe: even when the elastomer buffers wear, positive torque transmission is maintained through the metal pins. Available in cast iron or steel, the ORPEX is robust, low-maintenance and easy to install. The elastomer buffers can be replaced as wear parts.
REEL supplies the optibelt ORPEX in the WN and WS versions as a genuine product from Optibelt/Tecnamic, including the elastomer buffers as wear parts.
