Spider elements for industrial couplings

Flexible spider elements for industrial couplings in polyurethane, NBR and high torque transmission

Spider elements are the connecting and damping element of flexible couplings. Their function is to absorb vibrations, reduce shock loads, compensate for small misalignments and transmit torque between shafts safely and efficiently. Thanks to their elasticity and mechanical strength, they help extend the service life of motors, gearboxes, pumps, fans, compressors and other rotating equipment. At OSN we have a wide range of spider elements for industrial couplings compatible with the main systems on the market, manufactured in different materials and hardness levels to suit the specific requirements of each installation.

Product range

Available materials

We have spider elements manufactured in NBR and polyurethane, with different degrees of hardness and mechanical characteristics to suit each application. The NBR versions stand out for their high elasticity and good resistance to petroleum-derived oils, numerous chemical agents and applications requiring a high damping capacity. There are also specific formulations for working at high temperatures. The polyurethane (PUR) versions offer excellent mechanical strength, high torque-transmission capacity, good wear resistance and a long service life. They are supplied in different hardnesses, from standard compounds to high-rigidity versions for applications with greater demands for precision and load.

They are available in different hardnesses and identifying colours, including versions of 85, 90, 92, 96 and 98 Shore A, as well as 64 Shore D compounds for high-rigidity applications.

Catalogues

We provide technical catalogues with detailed information on dimensions, materials, hardnesses, working temperatures, torque-transmission capacities and equivalences for the main series of industrial couplings:
