FLEXILOCK Hydraulic Pump Drive Kits for Diesel Engines

The FLEXILOCK hydraulic pump drive kit is a precision engineered single pump drive system designed to interface diesel engines with hydraulic pumps using SAE compatible mounting standards. Manufactured in Australia, FLEXILOCK drive kits provide reliable torque transmission, simplified installation and long-term operational durability.

Whether you are specifying a new hydraulic power pack, replacing an existing pump drive, or upgrading a diesel engine interface system, FLEXILOCK delivers a complete hydraulic pump drive solution.


Engineered for SAE Compatibility

FLEXILOCK hydraulic pump drive kits are pre-engineered to interface diesel engines manufactured to SAE flywheel housing and flywheel standards. The system supports a wide range of hydraulic pumps built to SAE pump mounting configurations, as well as many DIN types.

Each kit is designed to ensure correct alignment between the engine flywheel and hydraulic pump input shaft, reducing the risk of premature spline wear or misalignment.

What’s Included in a FLEXILOCK Drive Kit?

A typical FLEXILOCK hydraulic pump drive kit includes:

  • Steel flywheel driveplate with integrated polymer drive element
  • Precision-machined geared drive hub
  • Engine housing adaptor (steel plate or cast bell type)
  • Mounting hardware
  • Installation instructions

The driveplate locates securely within the engine flywheel recess and transfers torque through the polymer gear element to the pump drive hub.


CLAMPLOCK Spline Locking System

For splined pump applications, FLEXILOCK kits can include the CLAMPLOCK spline locking mechanism. This system secures the geared hub to the hydraulic pump shaft and helps maintain proper spline engagement under load.

Correct hub positioning is critical to ensure full gear tooth contact. Installation instructions specify the correct “L” set-up length to optimise engagement while preventing end loading on the pump shaft.

Designed for Mechanical Integrity

FLEXILOCK hydraulic pump drive kits address critical installation factors including:

  • Driveplate orientation and flywheel recess fitment
  • Correct bolt torque values for spline locking
  • Verification of pump pilot diameter compatibility
  • Maximum static cantilever loading limits of 14 kgm (101 ft-lb)

Managing cantilever loading is essential when installing larger or multi-element pumps. Where required, additional pump support structures should be considered.


Replacement Driveplates Available

Over time, driveplates may require replacement due to wear. FLEXILOCK replacement driveplates are available to maintain performance and compatibility with existing kits.

Installation & Technical Resources

Correct identification of both the diesel engine flywheel housing and the hydraulic pump mounting configuration is critical before selecting a hydraulic pump drive kit. FLEXILOCK drive kits are engineered around common SAE interfacing standards, and accurate measurement of flywheel housing size, flywheel dimensions, pump pilot diameter and mounting bolt pattern ensures proper alignment, spline engagement and long-term reliability.
