Why Laos needs chain couplings
Laos is a landlocked economy with hydropower, mining and agriculture, connected by rail to China and by road to Thailand and Vietnam.
Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.

Copper and gold mines use heavy spares.
In Laos, open-pit and underground mines and mineral processing plants buy chain couplings from us mainly for pump and motor sets and conveyors and bucket elevators.
