Description

GUMMI BR-160 TLB belongs to flexible coupling, part of our Power transmission range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for BR-160 TLB and any equivalents.

The BR TLB couplings from Gummi are part of the BR line of elastic couplings. Their hubs accept a Taper Lock taper bushing, which is not supplied with the coupling. These couplings connect shafts in power transmission systems and help absorb misalignment and vibration. MR Industrial Accessories supplies them.

The BR TLB design uses an elastic center positioned between two hubs. It transfers torque while damping load fluctuations. In the TLB version, each hub is made to receive a Taper Lock taper bushing, so the bore is left unmachined and the shaft fit is achieved through the bushing. Model codes combine the line letters and a size: BR-100 TLB, BR-110 TLB, BR-150 TLB, BR-160 TLB and BR-180 TLB.

Typical applications include centrifugal pumps, fans, blowers, conveyor belts, mixers and process equipment. These machines require torque transmission with some tolerance to misalignment. The coupling also acts as a mechanical fuse between the motor and the driven machine.

When selecting a size, begin with the machine torque and apply the service factor for the load type. Then compare each shaft diameter with the maximum bore and the matching taper bushing. Maximum permissible speed goes down as size goes up, so check the operating rpm against that limit. Before final assembly, verify shaft alignment. During maintenance, inspect the elastic center.

Each product page lists the model, the Taper Lock Bushing setup, maximum bore, elastic center diameter, overall length, maximum speed and the corresponding taper bushing. These details define the variant. If you need help choosing, contact us on WhatsApp with the code you have.

To request a quote, send the coupling model or code, both shaft diameters, the motor power and rpm, and the driven machine speed via WhatsApp. We will quote the BR-100 TLB, BR-110 TLB or the size you need. MR Industrial Accessories will reply promptly.

Frequently asked questions

What does TLB mean in BR couplings?
TLB indicates Taper Lock Bushing. The hubs are prepared for a standard taper bushing, so the bore is not machined. The bushing is not included with the coupling and is selected based on the shaft diameter.
How do I choose the BR TLB model?
Start with the machine torque and service factor. Check each shaft diameter against the maximum bore and select the appropriate taper bushing. Also compare the operating rpm with the maximum speed for that size.
What data do I need to request a quote for a BR TLB coupling?
Send the model or code, both shaft diameters, the motor power and rpm, and the driven machine speed via WhatsApp. With that information we will quote the exact model you need.
