Grid couplings or Biddy Couplings are flexible couplings used in high torque, low misalignment applications. Biddy couplings were originally invented by Dr James Biddy in 1917, by mating two shafts together with hubs and a specially wound and tempered spring to allow the two shafts to become angularly misaligned. Grid couplings small amount of angular […]

Elastomeric couplings, used in a number of industries mainly the Industrial sector in areas like food and beverage etc. are primarily used because of their makeup, a non metallic center made up of a tough polymer. In other industries bronze, hytrel and Buna N are other ma The polymer helps to make the coupling flexible […]
