The S50MFBMS25P08P08 is a set screw type bellows coupling with 8 mm bore diameters on both sides, made entirely of stainless steel. It has an overall length of 36.5 mm and a maximum torsional torque rating of 2 N•m with a static torque capacity of 4 N•m. The coupling supports a maximum speed of 15,000 rpm, a torsional stiffness of 330 N•m/rad, and can accommodate a parallel offset of 0.15 mm and an angular misalignment of up to 0.6°. Its axial play is rated at 73 mm, and it weighs 73 grams. The coupling is designed for zero backlash and maintenance-free operation.
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.
