A gear coupling is a type of mechanical coupling that is used to connect two shafts at their ends to transmit torque and rotational motion. It consists of two hubs with external teeth connected by a flexible element, typically a sleeve or a disk, with internal teeth.

The hubs are usually made of steel or other high-strength materials, and the teeth are cut using precision machining techniques to ensure proper fit and alignment. The flexible element is designed to compensate for any misalignment between the two shafts and to allow for a slight amount of angular and axial misalignment during operation.

Gear couplings are commonly used in heavy-duty applications, such as in large machinery and industrial equipment, where high torque and precision are required. They are also used in applications where shafts are subjected to significant amounts of vibration and shock, such as in marine and aerospace applications.

One of the advantages of gear couplings is that they are highly efficient at transmitting torque, with very little energy loss. They are also durable and require minimal maintenance, making them popular in many industries.
