Among the large variety of torsional couplings available, our elastomeric flexible couplings offer the most comprehensive package of benefits available to the powertrain designer. Parker Lord's product lines include different flexible coupling styles which cover a wide range of application requirements. Both main drive flexible flywheel couplings (connecting the engine or motor to a transmission, pump, compressor, or generator) and accessory drive flexible couplings (connecting starters, alternators, fans, blowers, power take-offs, etc.) are available in a host of custom designs and standard product variations

Announcing Our Next-Gen Coupling!

The off-highway vehicle market is evolving rapidly, with trends such as larger machines, increased horsepower, idle management systems, higher engine temperatures, and hybrid drive options pushing the need for advanced elastomeric powertrain couplings.

In response, Parker has developed LORD Next-Gen Elastomeric Couplings. This innovative design features a high-temperature elastomeric element combined with coil springs and snubbing pads, providing multiple stiffness stages tailored to inertia. This ensures optimal isolation and durability throughout the vehicle's operating range.

Dynaflex® Elastomeric Flexible Couplings

Elastomeric flexible couplings prolong driveline component life because they reduce the magnitude of imposed loads, attenuate vibration in multiple planes, accommodate misalignments in multiple planes, and act as barriers impeding noise created by meshing gears, engaging clutches, etc. Elastomeric flexible couplings are also maintenance free. They require no lubrication or other maintenance throughout their service life.

Our Fluidlastic Mounts provide superior cab damping and motion control that decreases noise and vibration, and increases operator safety and comfort across a variety of severe-duty applications.
