  • N-ARPEX and ARPEX: All-steel disc couplings with torque from 92 Nm to 2,000,000 Nm.
Backlash-Free Couplings
These couplings provide high torsional stiffness and isogonal torque transmission, with vibration-damping and electrically insulating properties.
  • BIPEX-S and SIPEX: Torque from 0.1 Nm to 5,000 Nm.
FLUDEX Couplings
Hydrodynamic fluid couplings that limit starting and maximum torque, providing overload protection and torsional vibration isolation.
Railway Couplings
Designed for rail vehicles, these couplings ensure reliability and safety, tested under extreme conditions.
Technical Information
Includes fitting recommendations, typical solutions, coupling size selection, and details on shaft hub connections and misalignment.
ELPEX-B Series
Highly flexible couplings available in 15 sizes, with torque from 24 Nm to 14,500 Nm. They feature elastic tires for easy replacement and are suitable for machines with non-uniform torque patterns.
Specifications and Benefits
ELPEX-B couplings are designed for shaft-shaft connections, with elastic tires made of natural or chloroprene rubber. They are highly flexible, free of torsional backlash, and maintain linear torsional stiffness.
Design and Material
Elastic tires are made from rubber with a fabric insert, and metal parts are constructed from grey cast iron or steel. The tires are fire-resistant and antistatic.
Power Ratings and Torsional Stiffness
Includes detailed power ratings and torsional stiffness data, with a damping coefficient of Ψ = 0.9.
Ordering Information
Provides ordering examples and codes for different configurations, emphasizing the importance of specifying correct bore size and keyway.
Company Overview
jbj Techniques Limited is ISO certified and offers ATEX certified products suitable for explosive atmospheres. Contact information is provided for further assistance.

Flender Mechanical Power Transmission Couplings available from jbj Techniques FLUDEX couplings are hydrodynamic fluid couplings which operate on the Fottinger principle. FLUDEX® couplings limit starting and maximum torque in the drive train and, through the property of rotational slip, serve as an aid to starting the motor, as overload protection in the event of fault and for isolating torsional vibration. To compensate for shaft misalignment, the FLUDEX® coupling is combined with a displacement coupling e.g. of the N-EUPEX® type. Railway Couplings Couplings for rail vehicles developed, tested...

Highly Flexible Couplings Unfitted coupling ELPEX-B Series Introduction Fitted coupling (shown without connecting shafts) Fitted elastic tire ELPEX-B® couplings are highly flexible and free of torsional backlash. Because of their low torsional stiffness and damping capacity, ELPEX-B® couplings are especially suitable for coupling machines with a highly non uniform torque pattern. ELPEX-B® couplings are also suitable for connecting machines with high shaft misalignment. The elastic tire can simply be slipped over the hub parts. The elastic tire is held firmly in place by fitting the clamping ring....

Highly Flexible Couplings ELPEX-B Series Introduction Torsional Stiffness and Damping The damping coefficient is Ψ = 0.9 The technical data for the elastic tires made of natural rubber and chloroprene rubber are virtually identical. Torsional stiffness depends on the ambient temperature and the frequency and amplitude of the torsional vibration excitation. More precise torsional stiffness and damping parameters on request. With flexible couplings the manufacturing process of the rubber elements and their aging primarily influence the stiffness value CTdyn. For this reason calculation must be made with...
