Geislinger Component

Geislinger Hub

Lightweight hub connecting fibre-reinforced composite shafts via a bolted flange, with torque from 140 to 745 kNm and shaft diameters of 180–270 mm; hydraulic assembly.

Description

The Geislinger Hub connects a cylindrical solid shaft by means of a bolted flange, reducing driveline weight and allowing more compact shaftlines through higher torque transmission in the same installation space. It is intended for lightweight powertrains using fibre-reinforced composite shafts.

Key features

  • External reinforcement ring of the same high-performance composite used in GESILCO® shaftlines, giving higher rigidity and lower weight
  • Friction-enhancing surface treatment achieved by modifying the base material (no coating)
  • Easy assembly: compression joint expanded and closed axially with high-pressure pumps
  • Very low mass and mass moment of inertia
  • Long service life; fire-resistant version possible

Technical data

  • Maximum torque range: 140 - 745 kNm
  • Shaft diameter: 180 – 270 mm
  • Customized flange connection possible

Applications

Marine, power generation and industrial applications.
