Flexible coupling GUMMI with safety locks (BS)

GUMMI BS belongs to 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 BS and any equivalents.

The GUMMI Type A flexible coupling with BS safety locks connects two shafts while compensating for misalignment, damping vibration and absorbing torque spikes. The safety locks hold the elastic element in place, preventing it from shifting along the axis during operation. This makes it suitable for equipment that runs continuously and where bearings and gears need protection. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and helps you pinpoint the exact model by its code.

The BS designation sets this coupling apart within the GUMMI Type A series. Its safety locks secure the elastic element and restrict axial movement between the two halves. Power flows through elastic deformation, so there is no metal-to-metal contact, which cuts noise and wear during starts. To verify shaft size, outer diameter and permissible torque for your application, send the complete model and we will check it against the manufacturer's data.

You will find this coupling on centrifugal pumps, fans, conveyor belts, mixers and speed reducers. It also appears in screw compressors and machine tools where torsional vibration must be reduced. Food, chemical and water treatment plants often select it because mounting is straightforward and the elastic element can be replaced without shifting the shafts. When equipment sees frequent starts or pulsating loads, this coupling helps shield downstream bearings and gears.

Proper selection depends on shaft diameter and length, power and working RPM, and the allowable misalignment. The safety locks add resistance to axial displacement, but you still need to confirm the elastic element is seated correctly. Before mounting, inspect keyways and alignment: a misaligned coupling speeds up elastomer wear and puts extra stress on bearings. If you lack the product page, send a photo of the assembly along with the shaft dimensions.

For an equivalent, message us on WhatsApp with the BS code, the equipment model and shaft dimensions. We can also search for alternatives within the same Type A series or other flexible coupling lines we carry. MR Industrial Accessories will respond promptly with the options. The more details you provide, the faster we identify the right part.
