Marine propulsion couplings

Robust and reliable: High-tech flexible couplings are suitable for ship propulsion, misalignment or on-board power generation without failure.

The stringent requirements of marine applications require superior design and specifications. From small workboats to large dredgers and ocean-going liners, Renold Coupling's marine products have been providing propulsion and power to vessels of all sizes for more than 50 years. Our latest rubber compression technology is inherently fail-safe and provides quiet operation by eliminating all metal-to-metal contact. Renold couplings offer:

  • Easy to assemble and suitable for applications in bell jars
  • Operates in bell jars and other high ambient temperatures
  • Protects the drivetrain during short circuits and other transient conditions
  • In the unlikely event of rubber damage, the drivetrain can still operate continuously
  • No lubrication or adjustment is required, and operating costs are low
  • Quiet operating conditions are achieved by eliminating metal-to-metal contact
  • Low vibration loads
  • Eliminates torque amplification
