Shaft Couplings

Gerwah offers the most technically advanced, backlash-free couplings, magnetic clutches and keyless clamps in a product lineup that continually adapts to advanced manufacturing. Also, we are pleased to customize our products to meet your unique requirements.

Safety Couplings
Disengage in unprecedented 2 to 4 msecs of an overload signal, compared to conventional couplings that take a full second to disengage. Ours automatically re-engage at the precise angular position.

Magnetic Clutches
Smoothly and cost-effectively transmit torque with servo-quality overload protection for nearly any type of industrial manufacturing. Two different styles are available:

  • Hysteresis – designed as two parts that nestle together, but without physical contact. Check out its many advantages! Ideal for tension control and bottle capping machines.
  • Synchronous – ideal for applications with frequent high-torque operations and frequent disengagement.

Metal Bellows Couplings
Unique taper lock design avoids the misalignment problems that are common with traditional taper lock clamps.

Miniature Couplings
Small, lightweight stainless steel couplings provide servo-quality stiffness, low inertia and an exceptionally long equipment life on today’s high-speed, automated manufacturing equipment. Available in both metal bellows and servo-insert styles.

Servo Insert Couplings
Available with three different damping inserts, these couplings compensate for misalignment caused by the high load inertias or very fast accelerations of today’s high-performance digital and analog servo and vector drives.

Keyless Clamping Products
Easily assembled clamping products designed for interior and/or exterior application on shaft diameters from 1/4" (6 mm) up to 40" (1000 mm). Reduces machinery downtime and lowers maintenance costs.

  • Locking Elements – elements that can be used to create your own customized assemblies.
  • Locking Assemblies – standard assemblies to connect shaft to hub.
  • Peter Shrink Discs – highly protective clamping method that "squeezes" shafts to gears, or shafts to shafts, during high-torque power transmission.
