Characteristics and Effectiveness Information
The S-Flex coupling layout is comprised of three parts: two flanges with inner teeth engage an elastomeric versatile sleeve with external teeth
Torque is transmited by means of the flanges mounted on each the driver and driven shafts by way of the sleeve
Misalignment and torsional shock loads are absorbed by shear deflection while in the sleeve
The shear characteristic with the S-Flex coupling is very effectively suited to absorb effect loads
The S-Flex coupling presents combinations of flanges and sleeves which might be assembled to suit your distinct application
Thirteen sizes can be found with torque capabilities that vary from 60 in-lbs to 72,480 in-lbs
The S-Flex flanges are supplied in five versions which are made from zinc or cast iron
Sleeves are available in EPDM rubber, Neoprene to address a wide selection of application necessities
Safety from misalignment, shock, and vibration:
PARALLEL:
The S-Flex coupling accepts as much as .062 in of parallel misalignment devoid of dress in. The flexible coupling sleeve minimizes the radial loads imposed on equipment bearings, a problem commonly connected with parallel misalignment.
AXIAL:
The S-Flex couplings is often utilized in applications which need a limited amount of shaft end-float without having transferring thrust loads to equipment bearings. Axial movement of roughly 1/8 inch accepted.
ANGULAR:
The flexing action on the elastomeric sleeve as well as locking feature of your mating teeth lets the S-Flex coupling to successfully manage angular misalignment as much as 1??.
TORSIONAL:
S-Flex couplings successfully dampen torsional shock and vibration to safeguard connected products. The EPDM and Neoprene sleeves have torsional wind-up versatility of 15?? at their rated torque. Hytrel gives 7??wind-up.
