Why Iraq needs chain couplings
Iraq holds some of the world's largest oil reserves and is rebuilding power, water and housing infrastructure after years of conflict. Umm Qasr near Basra is the main seaport, with northern cargo often routed through Turkey.
Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
