Star couplings and spiders

Couplings are critical transmission components that connect two shafts for power and torque transmission while compensating for axial, radial, and angular misalignments during operation. By dampening shock loads and minimizing vibrations through their flexible rubber or plastic inserts (spider or rubber elements), these components extend the service life of system bearings and ensure safe, continuous operation across a broad range of applications, including pumps, compressors, conveyor lines, and heavy industrial equipment.
