Ameriflex Diaphragm Coupling
Ameriflex Diaphragm Couplings

The Ameriflex design offers several design features:
  • High torque to weight ratio.
  • Sub-assemblies are field replaceable.
  • Low windage and horsepower loss.
  • Diaphragms are 15-5 PH stainless steel.
  • High torque to diameter ratio.
  • Low repeatable unbalance.
  • Diaphragms designed for infinite life using Finite Element Analysis verified by strain gage and dynamic testing.
  • R Series integral filler diaphragm maintains diaphragm flex area separation with optimized convolution form.
  • Customized designs available for unlimited applications.
  • Multiple separated diaphragms in a pack provide a built-in, fail-safe feature.
  • Shot-peened diaphragms for improved fatigue strength and stress corrosion resistance.
  • Diaphragms capable of operating in extreme environments without protective coatings.
  • All Ameriflex couplings are manufactured to API-671 requirements.
  • Maintenance free for years of dependable performance.
  • Symmetrical diaphragm does not subject connected equipment to an alternating moment.
  • Black oxided, heat treated, alloy steel torque transmitting components are standard.
  • Large axial travel capability with constant axial stiffness.
  • Low bending moment and axial force while maintaining high torque capacity, resulting in lower bearing loads.
