A Full Line of Marine 
Gearbox Couplings 
and Mountings
R & D Marine offers a full line of marine gearbox couplings
and mountings. These are made from high-grade 
R & D Marine engineering polymer alloys and are highly resistant to oil, 
Offers a Full diesel, and petrol. They are easy to install and can be 
Line of adjusted to the exact position on the shaft. They can also 
Marine machine Split Half Couplings to meet specific sizes and 
specifications.
Gearbox 
Couplings 
and Type A Flexible Couplings help transfer torque from the 
marine engine to the gearbox. They also help reduce the 
Mountings shock caused by hard gear changes. They fit many marine 
engines from five to five hundred horsepower.

They are easy to install, requiring no machining, and come 
R & D Marine with bolts that connect to the existing shaft flanges.
Offers a Full 
Line of VF couplings are ideal for diesel engines mounted on 
Marine flexible mounts. They provide optimum isolation of diesel 
Gearbox engine vibrations from the hull. They also dampen 
torsional vibrations and tune the system's torsional 
Couplings response. They can also absorb substantial misalignments 
and between the gear and the engine. VF couplings are 
Mountings especially suitable for high-speed diesel engines with SAE 
flywheels between fourteen and twenty-one and torque up 
to 18.0 kNm.

Poly Flex Mounts provide vibration control and high thrust 
load resistance. They come in a variety of base 
R & D Marine configurations and core shore hardness, and can be used in 
Offers a Full combination with Poly Flex Couplings to improve vibration 
Line of isolation. These couplings are also available in a variety of 
combinations. They can be used in conjunction with engine 
Marine mounts to provide even more vibration isolation.
Gearbox 
Couplings 
Flexible marine gearbox couplings are made of polyester 
and elastomer and feature a contoured flexible disc that gives 
Mountings clearance for the bolt heads. They also flex to correct any 
temporary misalignment.

This may occur due to flexing of the boat's structure or 
R & D Marine engine moving on rubber vibration isolation mountings. 
Offers a Full They allow easy installation and do not require hauling the 
boat out of the water. These couplings are usually custom-
Line of ordered, so allow two to three weeks for delivery.
Marine 
Gearbox 
Flexible gearbox couplings are used for both industrial and 
Couplings marine applications. Some couplings are bolted directly to 
and the gearbox, while others are flexible and can be adjusted 
Mountings to fit a wide range of flanges. They can also be used with 
various adapters and T-bush kits.
