Why Mombasa needs chain couplings
Kilindini harbour serves Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan; edible-oil refineries and cement plants operate nearby. Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
Kenya is East Africa's commercial hub. Mombasa port serves Kenya and the landlocked markets beyond it, Nairobi hosts regional head offices and most manufacturers, and agriculture, from tea and flowers to maize and dairy, still employs most of the workforce.
