When you’re dealing with large, heavy industrial loads, your system must be designed from top to bottom to withstand daily punishment. That means connecting components with rugged couplings manufactured to tolerate high-torque, high-horsepower situations – which is where Falk G couplings shine. Falk’s Lifelign gear (G) couplings boast unparalleled strength, thanks in part to the […]

Couplings play a critical role in any industrial machinery configuration. As the point of connection between rotating shafts, they allow power to be transmitted to the gear reducer, converted into torque and passed on to the machinery being driven. When chosen properly, the right couplings can even adjust for misalignments between connecting shafts. There are […]

In an industrial setting, space constraints and the resulting equipment configurations often require some creativity in order to get components working together effectively. For example, sometimes a machine may be located a large distance away from its motor, requiring a long connecting shaft. In such cases, floating shaft G couplings can provide an easy answer. […]

If asked to define G couplings, the average man or woman on the street might speculate that G couplings occur between members of a Homie-G’s entourage. However, engineers, factory managers and maintenance technicians know better. They understand that G couplings connect different parts of heavy-duty machinery. This article explains just what a G coupling is, […]
