Why Nigeria needs chain couplings
Nigeria is Africa's most populous nation and one of its largest economies, with oil and gas in the Niger Delta, the continent's biggest consumer market in Lagos, and fast-growing food, cement and manufacturing industries.
Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.

Mining & minerals in Nigeria
Mines and processing plants in Nigeria move ore on belt conveyors and bucket elevators around the clock. Spherical roller bearings, gear couplings, conveyor belts and idlers wear continuously, so reliable spares supply directly protects production.
