About RINGSPANN GmbH

RINGSPANN is a family-owned German manufacturer of power transmission components, clamping fixtures and remote control systems, founded in 1944 and headquartered in Bad Homburg near Frankfurt. The company built its name on the RINGSPANN disc principle and is regarded as the international market leader in freewheels, supplying overrunning, indexing and backstop clutches alongside industrial brakes, shaft-hub connections — locking assemblies, shrink discs and rigid couplings — overload clutches, precision clamping fixtures and push/pull cable remote control systems. Its current homepage highlights continued expansion of the coupling range, including the acquisition of StS Coupling and Steigerwald CNC, and a gearbox-friendly braking system designed to eliminate flank change during emergency stops in hoist gearboxes.

The group’s own company profile states more than 575 employees across 23 international companies and around 6,000 customers worldwide, with production plants in Germany and abroad. Customers come from industrial gears and geared motors, mining, machine tools, food and packaging machinery, energy generation, material handling, marine, rail, aerospace, vehicle construction and general plant engineering. For directory partners, RINGSPANN is a ready-to-install drive component supplier for machine and gearbox builders that need freewheels, brakes or shaft-hub connections engineered, manufactured and supported by one specialist house.
