The S50MFBMA16H05H06 is a split hub bellows coupling with aluminum alloy hubs and a phosphor bronze bellows, designed for zero backlash, maintenance-free torque transmission between rotating shafts. It has bore diameters of 5 mm and 6 mm, and an overall length of 26.5 mm. The coupling supports a maximum torsional torque of 0.5 N·m and a static torque of 1 N·m, with a maximum rotational speed of 9500 rpm. Its torsional stiffness is 110 N·m/rad, and it allows a parallel offset of up to 0.15 mm, an angular misalignment of up to 2 degrees, and an axial play of +0.6/-1.8 mm. The coupling weighs 9.8 grams with the maximum bore configuration.
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.
