HRC Couplings – Flexible & Durable Power Transmission Solutions

Reliable HRC Coupling Supplier in the UK

At BEP (BEP Ltd), we supply a wide range of HRC couplings, including the popular HRC 150 coupling, designed for efficient and durable power transmission. Engineered with a modular design, these couplings provide a simple yet effective solution for connecting shafts across multiple industrial applications.

Each HRC coupling assembly consists of two cast iron hubs and a resilient rubber or chloroprene insert. This flexible insert absorbs shock, dampens vibration, and compensates for minor shaft misalignment, ensuring smooth and reliable operation. The hubs lock securely to the shaft using a taper lock bushing, allowing for quick installation and easy maintenance.

Key Features of HRC Couplings

• Smooth Power Transmission: Reduces shock loads and vibrations on drives to cut out wear and tear.
  
• Simple assembly: With the taper lock bushes, installation and removal are easy and fastening.
  
• Misalignment Capacity: Parallel, Angular, Axial deviations as per industry norms.
  
• Variety Of Sizes: Numerous sizes to choose from, from petite couplings to heavy duty!
  
• Durable: Constructed of high quality cast iron with long lasting elastomer inserts.

Applications of HRC Couplings

HRC couplings are widely used across industries where flexible shaft connections are required:

• Pumps and compressors
  
• Conveyors and material handling systems
  
• Generators and heavy machinery
  
• Industrial gearboxes and fans

FAQs – HRC Couplings

Q: What are HRC couplings for?

An HRC coupling is a coupling for connecting two shafts, offering flexible power transmission and absorbing vibration as well as parallel, angular, and axial misalignment.

Q: What is the meaning of HRC 150 coupling?

The “150” is indicative of the size of the HRC from a series range of sizes designed for larger, heavier industrial applications.

Q: Can HRC couplings accommodate misalignment?

They do handle parallel, angular and axial misalignment to an extent but with parameters to maintain their long life.

Q: How easy is it to change the HRC coupling?

Yes, they’re cinch to install, remove, or replace thanks to the taper lock design as well as modular construction.

Q: Do you have the jaw couplers too?

BEP Ltd do Yes we do BEP Ltd stocks HRC coupling and jaw coupling so you do get the best fit for your machinery.
