KCP Taper Grid Coupling

 KOREACOUPLING is a coupling manufacturer such as grid, gear, elastomeric coupling in Korea since 1992.

We export to more than 45 countries. We have own R&D center so we can customize the products what customer needs.

Certification: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, RoHS, etc

KCP couplings

1. When overload occurs, grid breaks and prevents breaking shaft or machinery parts contented.

2. When the parallel misalignment is too severe, the relating machine is protected by the virtue of shearing Grid on Tooth.

3. The life of parts (Mechanical Seal and Bearing, etc) can be extended as twice or more.

4. Quick installation and easy maintenance reduce labor cost and down-time cost.

5. KCP couplings are 99% interchangeable with major brands. 

6. It always transmits the power fully (99%) in low noise.

7. You can use it at cheaper maintenance cost by changing damaged parts only.

Cover type

 Horizontal Split Cover Type (T10)

 • Best Choice for limited spaces
 • Allows easy access to the grid spring
 • Suitable for reversing applications
 • Light weight, die-cast aluminum grid cover

 Vertical Split Cover Type (T20)

 • Best choice for high operating speeds
 • Allows easy access to the grid spring
 • Steel grid cover for strength

 KCP Tapered Grid Couplings are shaft-to-shaft couplings that are of compact size, can handle torque capacity due to their high strength hardened alloy steel construction. The tapered grids are designed with a trapezoidal cross section and are tempered for spring hardness. Through a high-precision operation called shot peening, the surface molecules are compressed by high-velocity steel micro beads. The compression of the molecules results in dramatic increase in strength rating and provides reserve strength for a longer part life.

 The tapered grids are accessible through the unit's removable cover. It is extremely easy to fit the trapezoidal grids into the slots of the hub, compared to fitting rectangular grids. There is no need for the equipment to be moved (hence downtime) so that couplings can be installed. Due to their compact size, the tapered grids can simply be placed directly in the slots of the hub. Finally, the practical split cover can be placed using standard tools.

 Protection Against Shaft Misalignment
The tapered grids are free to rock, pivot, and float within the hub teeth. This provides generous capacity for misalignment without producing the detrimental side loads on the bearings that are often created when couplings are misaligned.

 Protection Against Shock & Vibratory loads

 KCP Tapered Grid Couplings are able to deflect torsional when subjected to normal shock or vibratory loads, so they are able to handle changing load conditions. The system truly is a shock absorb for rotary motion, relying on the predictable resilience of the grid for torsional flexibility. The tapered grids "tune" the drive system. Due to their spring hardness, the grids absorb impact by spreading the impact energy over time. The grids can also damp vibration and reduce the peak or shock loads experienced by the rest of the system.
