RCT

Torsionally Stiff Flange Couplings for Pump Drives.

With RCT couplings REICH offers an optimal drive solution for the connection of diesel engines to hydraulic pumps. Due to the torsionally stiff design of the RCT coupling, critical resonances can be shifted into the range above the operating speeds.

With RCT couplings REICH offers an optimal drive solution for the connection of diesel engines to hydraulic pumps. Due to the torsionally stiff design of the RCT coupling, critical resonances can be shifted into the range above the operating speeds. This enables sub critical operation of the drive without passing through detrimental torsional vibration amplitudes.

The RCT coupling, like the decade-long proven ARCUSAFLEX® coupling, is designed as an axially pluggable flange coupling. The coupling element consists of a robust metal inner body with a thin rubber coating that effectively dampens torque shocks. In addition, small axial, radial and angular displacements which are common to flanged hydraulic drives can be compensated for.

Numerous standardized tooth profiles ensure a backlash-free clamping connection between the RCT coupling and the pump shaft. The coupling flanges are matched to SAE flywheel dimensions.

As a supplementary service, REICH also offers a multitude of bellhousing flanges through which the vast majority of combustion engines and hydraulic pumps can be connected.

REICH can also develop an optimised solution for non-standard designs following the principle “D2C – Designed to Customer”.



The technical data applies only to the complete coupling or the corresponding coupling elements. It is the customer’s/user’s responsibility to ensure there are no inadmissible loads acting on any of the components. In particular, existing connections, e.g. bolted connections, must be checked with regard to the torques to be transmitted. If necessary, further measures, such as additional reinforcement with pins, may be necessary It is the customer’s/ user’s responsibility to make sure the dimensioning of the shaft and keyed or other connection, e.g. shrinking or clamping connection, is correct. All components that can rust are protected against corrosion as standard.

REICH have an extensive range of couplings and coupling systems to cover nearly every drive configuration. Customized solutions can be developed and manufactured even in small batches or as prototypes. In addition calculation programs are available for all necessary dimensioning.
