Why Tanzania needs industrial couplings
Tanzania combines a large farming sector with gold and gemstone mining, a growing manufacturing base in Dar es Salaam and major rail and power projects. Dar es Salaam port also serves Zambia, Malawi, Rwanda, Burundi and the DRC.
Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
