Rail Couplings
Couplings for rail vehicles must fulfil numerous requirements during everyday use, sometimes in extreme conditions. With this in mind, Flender focuses on reliability and safety during both the design and the production of rail couplings and regularly subjects them to tests.
Years on The Rails
With over a hundred years of experience in manufacturing couplings and gear units, we can offer the expertise that your rail vehicle deserves. Our quality assurance measures ensure consistent product features. Our team will send you comfortably on your way with the right coupling solution for your drive system and provide you with guidance and advice even during maintenance and servicing work. As traction drive specialists, we aim to meet all customer requirements and our range of couplings for rail vehicles is therefore based on a holistic approach.
The Flender product range comprises couplings for partially and fully suspended drives which can be mounted between motor and gear unit or gear unit and wheel set shaft. Axle loads of up to 40t, motor speeds of over 8,000 rpm and driving speeds of more than 400 km/h create high forces, which our couplings are designed to withstand. We have tested all model series under extreme conditions so as to guarantee maximum reliability. We offer you a broad range of products in all necessary sizes and designs as standard. Our global experience and footprint provide a level of support that is matched by the rail market demands, and we take great pride in being able to collaborate and innovate with rail manufacturers and operators worldwide.
