From Code KIC/001 to KIC/017 with internal Pressure Plates From Code KIC/018 to KIC/028 with external Pressure Plates. Dimension Size 5 and 6 can easily be altered to suit individual applications. Normally shaft ends may be kept (7) distance apart. However, they can be kept at larger distance apart, care being taken that sufficient shaft/keyway length is is covered by the Hub. The shaft length can also be brought nearer each other keeping in mind the end play between the shafts to avoid chattering. Apart from the standard sizes listed above we have 50 other types/sizes under regular production which can be tailored to suit almost any requirement and may prove to be even more economical. please furnish full details of your drive. Replacement tyre-members for imported Tyre type coupling are also available. The figures given above are approximate and furnished for guidance purposes only.

Tyre Coupling
'Easyflex' Tyre Type Automatic Flexible Cushion Couplings
A new idea in flexible couplings. Designed on a modern, scientific and well-proven concept of power transmission from one shaft to the other.

Self Aligning Agent - 'Easyflex' Coupling is a sophisticated new device for driving your machines with a flexing body that automatically compensates to considerable degree singly or in any combination; misalignment and end float. It takes angular misalignment upto 40. parallel misalignment upto 1/8" or end float upto 5/16" depending upon the size of the coupling and duration of shaft misplacement. Cushion Shock Loads - It cushions Shock Loads and absorbs Torsional and Lateral
Vibration real enemies of valuable machines. Vibrations that could produce undesirable sounds are also isolated. Transmission of gear noise and motor hum between shafts is reduced. 'Easyflex" provides just a steady constant dampening effect regardless of the direction of rotation and protects system components from fatigue failure.

Simplified Design - No gears No seals No bearings No wearing parts No backlash clearance. Easyflex' forms one combined assembly, there is no relative movement inside of any part. No Lubrication or Maintenance - 'Easyflex' couplings requires no lubrication
prompting cleanliness that is especially desirable in such fields as food processing and textiles hence requiring no periodic maintenance as a result.

Safety - No metal to metal contact between two shafts, therefore. the cushion coupling insulates against flow of current from one shaft to the other No sharp edges, metal surfaces are finished all over. Flexible Member - The heart of Easy Flex' Coupling is a Tyre-shaped hollow round, non-endless ring with an oblongated semi-circular cross-section having a number of fully spread and impregnated layers of reinforcements and rows of internal stress absorbing materials reason for its amazing long life: Twin flanges hold the Flexible Member in position allowing it to flex at will in all directions-the power loss being practically negligible. Easy Installation
Quick and Easy to install No need for precise Shaft Alignment Initial assembly of the 'Easyflex' Coupling is a simple operation. Alignment may be roughly checked by placing accurate measuring equipment, since small errors in mis-alignmenl are easily, accommodated by the Resilient Member. To replace the Flexible Member, simply loosen the Bolts, remove the Tyre and replace with a new one. It is not necessary to move either the driving driven machines during the entire operation. The split Flexible Member is placed so that bearing on both sides is held between the Flanges and the Clamping Rings. The bolts are then tightened into place to grip the Resilient Member fully. THAT IS ALL. To get highest dependability in mechanical power transmission, USE EASY FLEX COUPLINGS.
