Composite Disc Couplings - Flexible & High Performance Solutions
Proven motion control technology
Zero Maxes composite disc clutches are robust and precise solutions designed for the most demanding servomotors and motion control applications. With high torsional stiffness and the ability to absorb pre-loads, they ensure reliable and backlash-free operation - even under high rpm and continuous load.
Thanks to patented technology and High-quality composite materialsour disc couplings are resistant to abrasion, chemical influences and moisture, making them maintenance-free and ideal for demanding environments.
We offer Several types of composite disc couplersthat can be customised to meet specific needs. Read more about our different solutions:

FEATURES
Composite Disc Coupling
- Backlash-free; good for high torque and precision applications
- High torsional stiffness: excellent for precision applications
- Maintenance free: no lubrication required
- Compact design: does not require a large space between shaft ends
- Longer life than metal disc couplings: designed and rated for infinite fatigue life; no disc failures due to fretting
- Broad operational temperature range: -70° to 250°F (-57° to 121°C)
- Unitized disc pack: no loose bushings or discs for easy replacement
- Laser cut discs: precision cutting process can be modified for specialized and custom designs that require higher torque, modified torsional stiffness, or increased misalignment capabilities
- The disc material is resistant to moisture, many chemical substances and with electrical insulation
- Black oxide coatings on steel hubs and black anodizing on aluminum hubs inhibits corrosion in normal industrial atmospheres
- Precision bore in disc bushings allows for a piloted tight fit between shoulder bolt and bushings, keeping the assembly concentric and ensuring smooth high-speed operation
- Precision machined hubs provide further concentricity for quiet operation.
- RoHS compliant: manufactured from RoHS-compliant materials and contain no banned substances
