Gummi's BR Line flexible couplings are the option for slow, heavy drives: they transmit high torque without lubrication and absorb misalignment between shafts. Their flexible center works without lubrication. MR Accesorios Industriales, official distributor of Gummi, helps you choose the right model for your machine and quotes it to you on WhatsApp.

The BR Line is a high-torque flexible coupling designed for low rotation. It works with a flexible center that deforms to transmit movement between the two hubs, without lubrication and with minimal maintenance. The designation is read with the letters BR followed by the size: BR-100, BR-110, BR-150, BR-160, BR-180, BR-220, BR-230 and BR-320. Each model has its nominal torque, maximum bore, pilot hole, flexible center diameter, overall length, weight and maximum speed.

This type of coupling is used in slow, heavy drives in Argentine industry: mills, conveyor belts, bucket elevators, mixers, positive displacement pumps, machines for cement, mining, paper and aggregate processing. Where the motor starts under load or there are torque spikes, the flexible center dampens and protects both the gearbox and the driven equipment.

To select the model, start from the machine torque and apply the service factor according to the type of load and the working hours. Check that the diameter of each shaft does not exceed the maximum bore of the hub and that the working rpm stays below the maximum speed of the coupling. Alignment between shafts must be careful: the flexible element tolerates misalignment, but poor alignment shortens its life. Installation does not require lubrication.

To request a quote, send us the model or the coupling code, the diameter of both shafts, the power and the rpm of the motor and the driven machine. With that data we confirm the corresponding model and send you the quote. If you already have the code BR-100, BR-150 or any other in the line, write to us on WhatsApp and we will quote it shortly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean that it is a high-torque coupling for low rotation?
It is designed for slow, heavy drives, where torque is high and revolutions per minute are low. The flexible center transmits that load without lubrication and dampens the torque spikes typical of mills, belts and elevators.
How do I choose the BR model for my machine?
Start from the machine torque, apply the service factor according to the type of load and the working hours, and check that the diameter of each shaft does not exceed the maximum bore of the hub. Also check that the working rpm stays below the maximum speed of the coupling.
What data do I need to request a quote for a BR coupling?
Send the model or code, the diameter of both shafts, the power and the rpm of the motor and the driven machine. With that we quote the coupling that corresponds to your application on WhatsApp.
