Guardian™ Curved Jaw Couplings
Guardian curved jaw couplings are an all-purpose solution ideal for demanding construction applications. Its compact design delivers high torque capacity thanks to the curved tooth profile, which increases contact area and reduces edge pressure for reliable performance under heavy loads. These couplings can accommodate axial, radial, and angular shaft misalignments, ensuring smooth operation even in rugged construction environments.

Guardian™ DELTA Series Flywheel Couplings
Guardian DELTA Series flywheel couplings are engineered for diesel-driven hydrostatic machinery and construction equipment, offering a cost-effective and durable solution. Its single-piece design integrates a hardened steel hub with a reinforced flange, reducing installation time and eliminating extra fasteners. Elastomeric grommets provide steady vibration damping while maintaining stiffness, allowing low-inertia equipment to operate safely below critical speed ranges.

Guardian™ E Series Mounts
Guardian E Series mounts are designed for construction applications, providing a reliable connection between NEMA “C” face motors and hydraulic pumps. Manufactured from high-strength aluminum alloy, these lightweight castings simplify installation while eliminating the need for coupling guards, shims, or extra mounting fixtures. Precision machining ensures accurate alignment between motor and pump, minimizing vibration and reducing premature coupling element failure in demanding construction environments.

Guardian™ FBA Series Flywheel Couplings
Guardian FBA Series flywheel couplings are built for rugged construction applications, offering a one-piece, all-steel design that ensures strength and durability. They attach directly to the engine flywheel for quick installation, with no hub positioning required, allowing hydraulic pumps to be blind fitted into the coupling hub. Elastomeric grommets provide steady damping of engine vibrations while minimizing side loading on the pump shaft, protecting equipment in demanding environments.

Guardian™ FLD Series Flywheel Couplings
Guardian FLD Series flywheel couplings are engineered for construction applications, enabling hydraulic pumps to be driven directly from the pulley side of the engine. Its retractable sleeve design allows for quick belt replacement, making equipment servicing easier without the need to remove the pump. Each coupling is fully customizable to match specific engine manufacturers and pulley designs, incorporating the Guardian Guardex™ M/I style series for reliable performance.

Guardian™ FL Series Flywheel Couplings
Guardian FL Series flywheel couplings are a proven, economical solution for off-highway construction equipment such as skid steer loaders, aerial lifts, and excavators. With decades of success in the field, this two-piece design combines a glass-reinforced nylon flywheel flange that fits both SAE and metric flywheels with a sintered steel hub for use on splined or straight shafts. The torsionally stiff construction requires no lubrication and is interchangeable with other popular coupling brands, making it both reliable and versatile.

Guardian™ Pump Flanges
Guardian™ Pump Flanges provide versatile, durable mounting solutions for SAE and metric pumps, with customization available for unique installation needs. Each steel plate includes a rust‑protective coating and comes in multiple thicknesses to support varied applications. Standard options cover SAE sizes 1 through 6, with SAE 0 and 00 available upon request, along with plain or zinc finishes and additional coating choices such as e‑coat, black oxide, and powder coat.

CENTAFLEX™-K Flywheel Couplings
CENTAFLEX™-K series is a compact two-piece coupling with high torsional stiffness and resonance-free operation. Ideally suited for hydrostatic driven construction equipment, lower-horsepower applications are easily handled by the CENTAFLEX-K.

CENTAFLEX™-A Torsionally Soft Couplings
CENTAFLEX™-A series couplings are designed for high-performance and high-torsional elasticity. Built to dampen torsional vibrations and shocks, CENTAFLEX-A protects your equipment and outperforms others in its class. The electrically-insulating and thermally-resistant silicone or rubber design is fail-safe and offers backlash-free torque transmission, even under high-torque applications.
