The S9901YMG040628 is a precision integral clamp hi-flex bellows coupling with 4 mm and 6 mm bore sizes and an overall length of 27.76 mm. Its hubs are made from aluminum, the bellows from flexible electrodeposited nickel, and cap screws from steel with black oxide finish. It accommodates up to 0.42 mm lateral misalignment, 1.71 mm axial extension, and 2.28 mm axial compression, with a maximum rated torque of 37.4 N·cm and angular misalignment tolerance of 10°. The coupling provides zero backlash, zero cyclic speed variation during 360° rotation, and low torsional deflection of 12.1 N·cm/rad.
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.
