Why Houston needs chain couplings
The energy capital of the world, with refineries, petrochemical plants and a major port. Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
The United States is the world's largest import market, with major oil and chemical industries on the Gulf Coast, manufacturing in the Midwest and South, and huge construction and retail sectors.
