    Axially Stiff Coupling

The axially fixed Loewe GK Torque from Schmidt-Kupplung is designed for torque applications where the coupling has to resist axial motion. The coupling combines the technical features of a single universal joint and a shaft coupling. The crossed pins slide easily in the plain bearings, which allow a pivotal and radial displacement of the two anodized aluminium hubs with lowest side and bearing loads. The series Torque is available with outer diameters ranging from 27 to 100 mm and with a torque range up to 220 Nm. Anodized aluminium clamp hubs ensure a press-fit shaft connection. For higher torque requirements a special customized steel version of the axially stiff coupling is realized. This coupling size with an increased outer diameter has a torque capacity of 600 Nm.
