The S59DZ9-HCF160619 is a heavy-duty constant-velocity coupling with a 0.375-inch bore and 1.20-inch overall length, designed to transmit torque while accommodating angular misalignment up to 1°. It features aluminum hubs, an acetal control-flex member, and hardened alloy steel pins, with no maintenance or lubrication required. The coupling provides zero backlash, electrical isolation, and no end thrust during torque transmission. Its continuous rated torque is 912 ozf·in, with a peak torque of 1296 ozf·in and torsional stiffness of 31.3 lbf·in/deg. Operating temperature ranges from -10°F to +150°F. The part uses #8-32 socket head screws and has a maximum outer diameter of 1.48 inches.
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.
