ADVANCED COMPOSITE PRODUCTS & TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Ultra-High Performance in the Harshest
Environments, Engineered for Maximum
Endurance & Fatigue Life
Nothing works
harder than nexus.
Nexus composite couplings are a highly engineered, non-lubricated, advanced composite, disc-type coupling. The spacer shaft and flanges are made from composite materials that ensure strength and endurance while delivering light weight, corrosion resistance and ultra-violet light protection. The disc-type flexible elements are made from a combination of stainless steel bushings, advanced composite disc-links and urethane encapsulation to provide a unitized assembly with a theoretical infinite fatigue life.
The flexible elements are rates for 1 degree misalignment and carry a four times peak overload rating when applied at 2.0 service factor. The hubs and hardware are made from stainless steel for added corrosion protection in aggressive environments.
