Buffer-elastic coupling, Neupex (Flender) type. Robust construction with steel pins and rubber buffers. Misalignment tolerance, damping and radial disassembly.
The RN-Flex is the worldwide standard for pin-and-buffer couplings — interchangeable with Flender Neupex.
The RN-Flex is interchangeable with Flender Neupex couplings. Compatible spare parts, standard dimensions, wide market availability.
The buffers are changed by radial removal — no shaft movement. Accelerated maintenance on motor-pump and motor-reducer assemblies.
The nitrile rubber (NBR) buffers absorb shocks and torsional vibrations. Protection of downstream components, smoothing of starting jolts.

The RN-Flex pin-and-buffer elastic coupling is interchangeable with Flender Neupex couplings, the worldwide standard for pin-and-buffer couplings. The design consists of two steel hubs connected by steel pins passing through nitrile rubber (NBR) buffers.
The RN-Flex offers good damping capacity for shocks and torsional vibrations, as well as adequate tolerance to angular, parallel and axial misalignment. The buffers are removed radially, without moving the connected shafts — a major advantage for maintenance on in-line installations.
Interchangeability with the Neupex standard ensures wide spare-parts availability and compatibility with competing manufacturer references (KTR Bowex, Stromag Periflex, etc.).
