Tips To Extend the Life of Your Gear Couplings
As a user of gear couplings, you are perhaps aware of how much they work for you. Gear couplings can give you more power in comparison to all other classes of couplings. Even if you mishandle your couplings, they continue to give a high-level performance. The only thing that should bother you is their maintenance. The life of Gear couplings is cut short due to the wear and tear of their teeth. Fortunately, this wear and tear happen slowly rather than abruptly. If you are serious enough to make the life of your couplings a little longer, consider their periodic maintenance. This article gives you a primer about the maintenance aspect of your gear couplings. There are two types of Gear couplings - low speed (or low-performance couplings) and high speed (or high-performance couplings). For the sake of avoiding undue complexity, let's discuss the maintenance aspect of the standard, low-speed gear couplings only. Lubrication is the keyword to remember when you think of maintaining y
