DAC Worldwide’s Urethane Tire Coupling Cutaway (200-2083) highlights a professionally-crafted, sectioned industrial shaft coupling. The full-size, fully-detailed example gives learners a first-hand view into a component that is found in various applications worldwide, and supports both instructor-led training and student self-discovery.

A popular choice for industrial pumps and other vital rotating equipment, flexible tire couplings offer a high degree of torsional softness, negating shock-type loads while accommodating significant misalignment without significant related vibration. This basic mechanical valve cutaway, sometimes referred to as Omega couplings, is regularly encountered by industrial maintenance mechanics, and is offered by a variety of manufacturers.

Enhance Training with Hands-On Cutaway Industrial Components

This Urethane Tire Coupling Cutaway provides a realistic training introduction to industrial couplings, which will make introductory courses in coupling maintenance and operation more productive, realistic, and memorable for learners. The coupling components are industrial-grade, mimicking what students might encounter on-the-job.

Through carefully-planned sectioning, the complete internal configuration of each coupling is exposed and showcased, allowing for convenient classroom training in the operation, construction, and maintenance of these common pieces of mechanical equipment. A full longitudinal cutaway allows for an unobstructed view of the details of the coupling’s construction, as well its method of shaft attachment.

The cutaway also features areas that are individually mounted, possessing the ability to be removed from the baseplate for convenient classroom use. Provided with plain hubs and representative stub shafts, the assembly can be used for hands-on practice in proper connecting screw installation and torquing, in addition to design and component review.

The equipment used within the cutaway is cleaned, primed and painted using a high-endurance urethane coating, providing durability to stand up to frequent use.

Expand Training with Additional Mechanical Model Options

The Urethane Tire Coupling Cutaway is only one of DAC Worldwide’s expansive mechanical training aides, which also includes the Fluid Coupling Cutaway (#200-2082), the Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer (208), the Fluid Coupling Replica (208-110), and more!
