A flexible drive coupling comprised of a pair of identical coupling members and a flexible coupling insert disposed between the two coupling members for transmitting torque from the coupling member connected to the shaft of the prime mover to the coupling member connected to the shaft of the load. Each of the coupling members has a generally epitrochoidal-shaped insert disposed within a similarly shaped bore in the coupling member. The insert in turn has a shaft bore formed therein and a break in one wall thereof so that when torque is applied thereto, the insert readily conforms to the size of the shaft to thereby clamp the coupling member to the shaft.
