Why Iceland needs tyre couplings
Iceland's economy is built on fishing, aluminium smelting powered by geothermal and hydro energy, and tourism.
Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
