Overview
Boston Gear's 1-piece rigid couplings are for use when the mating shafts are positioned in lateral and angular alignment. This style of coupling precludes any misalignment and will create high stress on the shafts and support bearings. Because of this design, a rigid coupling can transmit higher torque than a comparably sized flexible bearing.
Features and Benefits
Simple design
High torque capacity
No backlash
Recessed setscrews
Low carbon steel
Sample Applications
Small office equipment
Mail sorting
High speed applications
