Catalogue brings families together
New complete catalogue from Alpha and Wittenstein replaces Alpha's previous system of blue binders and single-product loose catalogues.
These features ensure system balance and maximum efficiency while providing accurate rotational positioning.
All Alpha couplings feature compact and user-friendly designs, mounting with a clamping hub or slip-tapered clamping hub.
Torque limiters clamp on any size shaft, are self-adjusting, and their low residual friction allows disengagement within 1 to 3ms.
Bellows couplings feature an easy-to-mount clamp for space-restricted installations.
They compensate for axial, lateral and angular misalignment and provide quiet, smooth operation.
Alpha's field-proven, versatile couplings enhance design flexibility, provide exceptional misalignment capacity, reduce reactionary loads, and extend the operating life of the connected components.
