Elastomers In Compression
We gives 4 varieties of elastomer patterns to allow for added versatility in addressing unique application needs. 1 piece patterns are utilized in the “L” and “AL” designs (referred to as spiders) and a number of aspect “load cushions” are used in the “C” and “H” model couplings. The load cushions are in sets of six to 14 pieces dependant upon coupling size.
Reliable Center Spider
The solid center design is commonly utilized style and design when shafts with the driver and driven products could be stored separate by a typical gap
Open Center Spider
The open center design allows for the shafts of your driver and driven to become positioned inside of a brief distance
Open center spiders provide shaft positioning versatility but have a reduce RPM capability
Cushions
Used exclusively to the C and H Style couplings
Load cushions are held in place radially by a steel collar and that is connected to among the hubs
Snap Wrap Versatile Spider
Design and style allows for uncomplicated removal of your spider without the need of moving the hubs
Permits for shut shaft separation all the way up to the hubs optimum bore
Optimum RPM is one,750 RPM with the retaining ring, but when utilised using the LC Variety (with collar) the ordinary RPM rating from the coupling applies
Design is accessible in NBR and Urethane only, and in restricted sizes
Spider Materials
SOX (NBR) Rubber
The conventional materials that is certainly extremely versatile materials that may be oil resistant
Resembles normal rubber in resilience and elasticity, and operates successfully in temperature ranges of -40° to 212° F (-40° to 100° C)
Urethane
Has 1.5 occasions higher torque capability than NBR
Good resistance to oil and chemicals
Materials provides less dampening impact and operates at a temperature array of -30° to 160° F
Hytrel
Flexible elastomer developed 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 lower speed (max 250 RPM) applications requiring higher torque abilities
Not affected by water, oil, grime, or severe temperatures – operates in temperatures of -40° to 450° F (-40° to 232° C)
