FLENDER Couplings

FLENDER standard coupling

  • As the worldwide largest manufacturer of mechanical couplings, with more than 80 years of experience, Siemens ensures that machine shafts are safely connected in almost all industrial sectors – worldwide.

    The high-quality industrial couplings are very well suitable for the use in many fields of application, many of them even in potentially explosive atmospheres. The product range covers couplings of a torque range from 10 up to 10,000,000 Nm.
