Characteristics and Efficiency Details
The S-Flex coupling layout is comprised of three elements: two flanges with internal teeth engage an elastomeric flexible sleeve with external teeth
Torque is transmited by 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 during the sleeve
The shear characteristic in the S-Flex coupling is extremely properly suited to soak up influence loads
The S-Flex coupling delivers combinations of flanges and sleeves which may be assembled to suit your distinct application
Thirteen sizes are available with torque capabilities that vary from 60 in-lbs to 72,480 in-lbs
The S-Flex flanges are provided in 5 models which are created from zinc or cast iron
Sleeves are available in EPDM rubber, Neoprene to tackle a wide range of application necessities
Safety from misalignment, shock, and vibration:
PARALLEL:
The S-Flex coupling accepts up to .062 in of parallel misalignment with no wear. The versatile coupling sleeve minimizes the radial loads imposed on products bearings, a problem typically connected with parallel misalignment.
AXIAL:
The S-Flex couplings can be utilized in applications which require a restricted quantity of shaft end-float without the need of transferring thrust loads to equipment bearings. Axial motion of approximately 1/8 inch accepted.
ANGULAR:
The flexing action of the elastomeric sleeve and also the locking feature with the mating teeth will allow the S-Flex coupling to correctly take care of angular misalignment as much as 1??.
TORSIONAL:
S-Flex couplings efficiently dampen torsional shock and vibration to guard linked gear. The EPDM and Neoprene sleeves have torsional wind-up versatility of 15?? at their rated torque. Hytrel gives 7??wind-up.
