Frontline Couplings transmit torque through precision machined barrel shaped pins, which ride within rubber coated self-lubricated fiber reinforced polymer bushings. This patented “free-floating” double engagement design has a high misalignment tolerance, easy to inspect & maintain, and is fail-safe, never causing a forced outage.
The Single Engagement Design is comprised of two hubs – one containing pins and one containing bushings. This arrangement can only accommodate Angular and Axial Misalignment.
The Double Engagement Model consists of two Hubs with Bushings and a free-floating Drive Ring with Pins on each side. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
The Spacer Model “A” consists of two Hubs with Bushings and a Spacer Cylinder with Pins on each side. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
The Spacer Model “B” consists of two Hubs with Pins that engage with a Cylindrical Spacer with Bushings on each side. This configuration allows for smaller diameter hubs reducing the weight of the coupling assembly and can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
The Spacer Model “C” consists of a Cylindrical Spacer with Bushings on each side engaging with Pin Adapters that bolt on to Rigid Hubs. This allows for quick retrofitting of a Gear, Grid or Disc Coupling to the Frontline Pin & Bush design using the existing Rigid Hubs. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
The Double Engagement Shear Pin Model consists of a drive ring made of two detachable sections held together by a predetermined size and number of Stainless Steel or Bronze Pins, designed to shear at a certain torque. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
This configuration of hubs carrying bushings and a split spacer with pins allows for pin removal/installation through the inverted hubs. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
This configuration of hubs carrying pins and a split spacer with bushings, used when there is minimal clearance between the coupling and the driver/driven equipment, allows for pin removal/installation through the split spacer. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
The Floating Drive Shaft Model “A” consists of two Single Engagement Couplings placed one on each end of a tubular Drive Shaft. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
The Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft Type A consists of all Frontline Coupling components including hubs that bolt onto the carbon fiber tube. This allows for damaged hubs to be quickly replaced in the field.
The Flywheel Model consists of a ring with bushings fitted onto a flywheel and a hub with pins fastened to the driven shaft. This arrangement can accommodate Angular and Axial Misalignment.
The Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft Type B utilizes Frontline Pin Adapters that bolt onto existing Rigid Hubs including hubs that bolt onto the carbon fiber tube. This allows for damaged hubs to be quickly replaced in the field.
The Floating Drive Shaft Model “B” consists of a tubular Drive shaft with Bushing Hubs on each end engaging with Pin Adapters that bolt on to Rigid Hubs. This allows for quick retrofitting of a Gear, Grid or Disc Coupling to the Frontline Pin & Bush design using the existing Rigid Hubs. This arrangement can accommodate Parallel, Axial and Angular Misalignment.
