Jaw Elastomers Overview

Elastomers In Compression
We presents four forms of elastomer styles to permit for more versatility in addressing distinct application needs. A single piece types are used in the “L” and “AL” versions (referred to as spiders) and multiple part “load cushions” are used in the “C” and “H” model couplings. The load cushions are in sets of six to 14 pieces dependant upon coupling size.
Solid Center Spider
The strong center layout is typically made use of style when shafts of your driver and driven products may be kept separate by a regular gap
Open Center Spider
The open center style and design lets for that shafts with the driver and driven to get positioned inside a brief distance
Open center spiders offer you shaft positioning flexibility but possess a reduce RPM capability
Cushions
Applied solely to the C and H Type couplings
Load cushions are held in spot radially by a steel collar that is attached to on the list of hubs
Snap Wrap Versatile Spider
Design will allow for uncomplicated elimination from the spider without the need of moving the hubs
Will allow for near shaft separation all of the way as much as the hubs optimum bore
Highest RPM is one,750 RPM using the retaining ring, but when utilised with all the LC Type (with collar) the ordinary RPM rating with the coupling applies
Design is available in NBR and Urethane only, and in limited sizes
Spider Components
SOX (NBR) Rubber
The conventional material which is very versatile materials that may be oil resistant
Resembles organic rubber in resilience and elasticity, and operates efficiently in temperature ranges of -40° to 212° F (-40° to 100° C)
Urethane
Has one.five occasions greater torque capability than NBR
Superior resistance to oil and chemicals
Materials supplies less dampening result and operates at a temperature range of -30° to 160° F
Hytrel
Flexible elastomer designed for high torque and substantial temperature operations
Operates in temperatures of -60° to 250° F (-51° to 121° C)
Bronze
Rigid, porous, oil-impregnated metal insert solely for very low pace (max 250 RPM) applications requiring large torque abilities
Not affected by water, oil, dirt, or extreme temperatures – operates in temperatures of -40° to 450° F (-40° to 232° C)
