Dodge Industrial launched its new Sidewinder wrap coupling.

Sidewinder features CoreStrike technology, which is engineered to deliver an optimal balance of strength and flexibility in demanding applications. According to Dodge, this approach offers improved resistance to wear and strengthens the coupling element, thereby contributing to an extended service life.

“With Sidewinder, we’ve focused on providing a differentiated product in a market that is full of competition,” says Vance Chavis, global product manager for coupling at Dodge Industrial. “Through comprehensive testing, we’ve simulated some of the harshest operating conditions these couplings will experience.”

Sidewinder’s design also features e-coated hubs and covers for increased corrosion resistance and long-term protection in harsh environments, the company says.

With a maintenance-free design, Dodge says Sidewinder eliminates routine service needs and reduces operational costs.
