The S50MHSM50H14H14 is a heavy-duty single disk flexible coupling designed for high torque and response applications with zero backlash. It features stainless steel pins and disks with anodized aluminum hubs, compensates for up to 1° angular offset and ±0.2 mm axial motion, and has shaft bore diameters of 14 mm on both ends. The coupling has a maximum rated torque of 7.5 N•m, a maximum rotational speed of 12000 rpm, a torsional inertia of 3.7 × 10⁻⁵ kg•m², a torsional stiffness of 3700 N•m/rad, and weighs 120 grams. It is secured with M5 cap screws and has an outer diameter of 50 mm and a length of 44 mm.
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.
