Elastomers In Compression
We provides four kinds of elastomer types to permit for more versatility in addressing precise application needs. A single piece types are used in the “L” and “AL” designs (known as spiders) and various portion “load cushions” are utilized in the “C” and “H” model couplings. The load cushions are in sets of six to 14 pieces depending on coupling dimension.
Solid Center Spider
The solid center style and design is frequently made use of layout when shafts on the driver and driven products can be stored separate by a typical gap
Open Center Spider
The open center design and style makes it possible for for the shafts from the driver and driven to become positioned inside of a brief distance
Open center spiders give shaft positioning flexibility but possess a decrease RPM capability
Cushions
Applied solely for that C and H Style couplings
Load cushions are held in location radially by a steel collar which is attached to one of many hubs
Snap Wrap Flexible Spider
Design and style lets for quick removal from the spider without having moving the hubs
Will allow for near shaft separation all the way up to the hubs maximum bore
Maximum RPM is one,750 RPM with all the retaining ring, but if used with the LC Type (with collar) the ordinary RPM rating of the coupling applies
Type is accessible in NBR and Urethane only, and in constrained sizes
Spider Components
SOX (NBR) Rubber
The conventional materials that may be really flexible materials which is oil resistant
Resembles purely natural rubber in resilience and elasticity, and operates properly in temperature ranges of -40° to 212° F (-40° to 100° C)
Urethane
Has 1.5 instances greater torque capacity than NBR
Superior resistance to oil and chemicals
Material provides less dampening result and operates at a temperature array of -30° to 160° F
Hytrel
Flexible elastomer made for substantial torque and high temperature operations
Operates in temperatures of -60° to 250° F (-51° to 121° C)
Bronze
Rigid, porous, oil-impregnated metal insert solely for low velocity (max 250 RPM) applications requiring substantial torque capabilities
Not affected by water, oil, dirt, or excessive temperatures – operates in temperatures of -40° to 450° F (-40° to 232° C)
