Jaw Type Coupling Selection Procedure:
a. Select the service factor according to the application.
b. Multiply the horsepower or torque to be transmitted by the service
factor to obtain rating.
c. Select the coupling with an equivalent or slightly greater horsepower or torque than
shown in the table.
d. Turn to the Product Section page illustrating the same coupling and make your specific
selection in that number series.
A sleeve type Coupling consists of two
splined hubs with a mating intermediate member of molded neoprene. Because of its
construction features, it is capable of normal operation with angular shaft misallgnments
up to 7.112.
Lubrication is not required. All parts are
replaceable without disturbing adjacent equipment provided sufficient shaft length is
allowed by slide coupling hubs clear of the sleeve member during disassembly. Select the
proper size for your application from table In Figure 12 and follow the selection
instructions.
Sleeve Type Coupling Selection Procedure:
a. Determine motor characteristic.
b. Determine service conditions.
c. Select the series coupling with an equivalent or slightly greater horsepower than shown
in the table.
d. Turn to Powergrlp couplings in the Product Section and select the specific assembly or
individual components in that number series.
Other types of couplings are also available and are fully
described along with technical specifications in this catalog.
