The S50CLMM508X25X25 is a zero-backlash lattice-type coupling with a 25 mm bore on each end, a 50.8 mm outer diameter, and a 72 mm overall length. It is designed for high angular misalignment compensation up to 7° and transmits a maximum torque of 20.5 N·m. The coupling supports a maximum speed of 3750 rpm, with lateral offset capability of 0.63 mm and axial offset of 1.25 mm. It has a torsional stiffness of 23 N·m/deg and weighs 281 g. The hubs are made of 6061 aluminum, the discs of 420 stainless steel, and the end flanges of 416 stainless steel. Mounting uses M8 x 1.25 set screws.
Couplings Types
Couplings can be divided into two categories: flexible and rigid. Both types are used to connect two rotating shafts driven by a motor and transmit torque and angular velocity; however, flexible couplings and shafts are designed to accommodate angular misalignment, angular offset, axial movement, and a variety of load conditions. A flexible coupling is pliable due to the twisting and compression of a durable, adaptable material, like neoprene, rubber, or silicone.
Flexibility can also be achieved with thin metal disks, corrugated aluminum bellows (bellows couplings), or even a stainless-steel ball (miniature ball couplings). Some materials can provide vibration reduction, as in our precision flexible antivibration couplings.
Rigid couplings are limited by comparison; rigid couplings are used when shafts are already positioned in precise lateral and angular alignment. Their rigid design inhibits shaft misalignment. They can generally transmit more power than flexible couplings due to their rigidity.
Even the most complicated application challenges can be solved by our skilled engineers, they will identify the best coupling solution for your application. SDP/SI provides a comprehensive range of rigid and flexible couplings. Many of our precision couplings, including the Miniature Bellows Coupling and the Neo-Flex Coupling, have our patented Fairloc® Hub design, which solves phasing, timing, positioning, and frequent removal problems.
