Bibby Resilient Grid Couplings

The Resilient Grid Coupling was invented by Dr. James Bibby in 1917 and this product transformed the Power Transmission Industry.

Designed to provide effective shock absorption and all the movement required by the transmission industry it became the platform on which many of the later developments were based. The success of the coupling principle is still one of the most popular today and is still the standard model for the larger industrial drives particularly for the steel industry.

Naturally, the wide use of the coupling is still evident in many of the steel mills, power stations, coal mines and cranes throughout the world and original spares are still readily available.
