Types G52 & GV52<br />

The Type G52 single engagement design is used with floating<br />

shafts or three bearing drive trains. It has one flex half and one<br />

rigid half and only accepts angular misalignment. (See Page 19.)<br />

The GV52 vertical single engagement gear coupling is a<br />

standard horizontal single engagement gear coupling modified<br />

to accommodate the sleeve centering assembly. It recommended<br />

for inclinations over 10°. Downward thrust capacity for Sizes<br />

1010 thru 1030GV52 is 1 130 Nm; Sizes 1035 thru 1070GV52<br />

is 3 390 Nm and Sizes 1080GV52 and larger is 9 830 Nm. (See<br />

Pages 23 & 44.)<br />

Floating shaft assemblies are used when distance between<br />

equipment is too great for spacer couplings. A standard floating<br />

shaft assembly consists of two standard single engagement<br />

couplings, two gap discs and a connecting shaft. A floating shaft can<br />

eliminate the need for additional bearing supports along spanning<br />

shafts because the shaft is supported by connected equipment<br />

through the single engagement couplings. (See Pages 21 and 42.)<br />

When used with a vertical floating shaft on inclinations over 10°,<br />

the Type GV52 coupling is used as the lower coupling to support<br />

the shaft.<br />

Flex Hubs on Floating Shaft (RFFR) — Assembly of the flex hubs<br />

on the floating shaft allows for easier replacement and allows the<br />

rigid hubs with greater bore capacity to be used on the<br />

connected equipment shafts. This frequently means a smaller<br />

coupling size can be utilized.<br />

Rigid Hubs on Floating Shaft (FRRF) — When the rigid hubs are<br />

on the floating shaft, shorter shaft spans can be accommodated,<br />

since no cover drawback is required.<br />

Types G52 & GV52 Floating Shaft<br />

Double or single engagement brakewheel and disc brake<br />

couplings are used for applications, such as cranes, hoists and<br />

conveyors. Brakewheel and disc brake couplings accommodate<br />

misalignment between connected equipment and eliminate the<br />

need for double shaft extensions on motors and gear drives for<br />

applications requiring brakes. (See Pages 24 & 25.)<br />

Types G62 & 66<br />

Type G63<br />

Double and single engagement Slide couplings are used for<br />

applications requiring axial movement to accommodate thermal<br />

shaft expansion or adjustment. (See Pages 26 & 27.)<br />

Types GL20 & GL52<br />
