The ACT2.4NT Reich Arcusaflex Drive Coupler is a precision-engineered flexible coupling designed to connect rotating shafts in industrial and power transmission applications where vibration control and mechanical reliability are critical. As part of the Arcusaflex ACT-series, the ACT2.4NT is built to absorb torsional shock, handle fluctuating loads, and maintain smooth, consistent torque transfer during continuous-duty operation.
This coupler functions as a mechanical buffer between the prime mover and the driven equipment, reducing vibration and compensating for minor shaft misalignment. By isolating torsional oscillations, the ACT2.4NT helps protect bearings, shafts, gearboxes, and other critical drive components from premature wear and fatigue.
Reich Arcusaflex couplers are widely trusted across industrial sectors due to their proven elastomeric design, robust construction, and long service life in demanding environments.

Functional Design and Performance
The ACT2.4NT Arcusaflex coupler utilizes a resilient elastomer element bonded to precision-machined metal components to create a torsionally flexible shaft connection. This configuration allows the coupling to absorb vibration and transient torque spikes before they can propagate through the drive system.
In applications such as rotary screw air compressors and generator sets, torsional vibration is a common cause of bearing wear, shaft fatigue, and alignment drift. The elastomer element within the ACT2.4NT reduces these forces, improving overall system stability and extending the service life of connected components.
The flexible design also compensates for installation tolerances and thermal expansion that naturally occur during equipment operation, helping maintain proper alignment without introducing excessive stress into the drive train.

Performance Advantages
The ACT2.4NT Reich Arcusaflex Coupler delivers stable, vibration-controlled torque transfer that enhances reliability across the entire drive system. By isolating torsional vibration, it reduces mechanical noise, limits wear on bearings and shafts, and helps prevent costly downtime caused by premature component failure.
Compared to rigid couplings or generic flexible couplers, Reich Arcusaflex couplings are engineered with specific elastomer characteristics optimized for industrial drive requirements. This ensures predictable damping performance and consistent behavior under varying loads and operating speeds.
Using the correct Arcusaflex coupling helps preserve original equipment performance, alignment accuracy, and long-term operational efficiency.
