GEAREX® - KTR’S REVOLUTIONARY ALL-STEEL GEAR COUPLING

GEAREX® is an all-steel flanged gear coupling manufactured by KTR which made its world debut in Germany at the Hannover Fair in April making it the latest addition to the KTR catalogue of power transmission products. Established over sixty years ago and now the world’s leading showcase for industrial technology, the Hannover Fair provided the perfect stage to set things in motion for the new GEAREX® coupling. This compact and powerful coupling ensures a long service life and high degree of operating safety. The radii of the teeth reduce the pressure on the edge of the sleeve. This combined with permanent grease lubrication ensure a long and reliable service life even in unfavourable working conditions. Its crowned gear teeth are a key design feature resulting in minimal wear of the coupling when dealing with axial, radial and angular shaft displacements. GEAREX® is fully ATEX approved enabling it to be used in hazardous environments. GEAREX® is fully compliant with the AGMA standard (American Gear Manufacturers Association) that means it is fully interchangeable with any AGMA approved steel gear coupling. GEAREX® is available in 16 sizes, covering a torque range from 930 Nm to 720,000 Nm ensuring high power density with a compact coupling making it an ideal choice for a range of applications including pump drives, compressors, steel mills etc. KTR pride themselves on having the ability to customise any product from their product range to meet customers individual specifications. Apart from the standard range GEAREX® is available in special designs; for example, with brake disk, intermediate tube or shaft, for horizontal or vertical mounting. KTR Couplings has been eagerly anticipating the launch of GEAREX® and the opportunity to supply yet another quality product to its many valued customers throughout the UK and Ireland.
