Thomas XTSR Disc Couplings
Directly replaces lubricated gear couplings commonly found in many pulp and paper applications with long spans between connected equipment. The XTSRGA coupling bolts up to the existing AGMA Standard rigid gear coupling hubs, replacing the floating shaft assembly.
Thomas XTSR Disc Couplings
Designed for long span applications where shaft spacing exceeds maximum length of standard fully machined spacer designs (XTSR52 / XTSR71).
Thomas XTSR Disc Couplings
The single flex element design accommodates angular misalignment only. Typically used in three-bearing applications where radial load is supported by the coupling, such as single bearing generators.
