Overview
The Rexnord Falk 1070T10 Steelflex grid coupling cover and grid assembly represents a proven, flexible-jaw coupling solution for industrial mechanical power transmission. This T10-series coupling features a horizontally split aluminum cover that enables field grid replacement without disturbing connected shafts or equipment—critical for minimizing downtime in continuous-run applications. The double-flexing design accommodates angular, axial, and parallel misalignment, making it suitable for motor-to-pump, motor-to-blower, and general industrial machinery setups.
Key Features
- Double-flexing design accommodates angular, axial, and parallel misalignment
