Jaw Elastomers Overview

Elastomers In Compression
We features four types of elastomer types to permit for further versatility in addressing distinct application needs. A single piece models are utilized in the “L” and “AL” designs (known as spiders) and multiple portion “load cushions” are used in the “C” and “H” model couplings. The load cushions are in sets of 6 to 14 pieces dependant upon coupling size.
Sound Center Spider
The strong center style is usually utilised design and style when shafts in the driver and driven products is often kept separate by a common gap
Open Center Spider
The open center design enables for the shafts in the driver and driven to become positioned inside of a short distance
Open center spiders offer shaft positioning flexibility but possess a reduce RPM capability
Cushions
Utilized solely for the C and H Sort couplings
Load cushions are held in location radially by a steel collar which is connected to on the list of hubs
Snap Wrap Versatile Spider
Style and design will allow for effortless elimination on the spider with out moving the hubs
Permits for near shaft separation every one of the way as much as the hubs greatest bore
Highest RPM is 1,750 RPM with all the retaining ring, but if used with all the LC Form (with collar) the normal RPM rating with the coupling applies
Type is available in NBR and Urethane only, and in limited sizes
Spider Elements
SOX (NBR) Rubber
The conventional materials which is really flexible material that may be oil resistant
Resembles normal rubber in resilience and elasticity, and operates correctly in temperature ranges of -40° to 212° F (-40° to 100° C)
Urethane
Has one.five times better torque capability than NBR
Fantastic resistance to oil and chemicals
Material supplies significantly less dampening impact and operates at a temperature selection of -30° to 160° F
Hytrel
Flexible elastomer created for large torque and high temperature operations
Operates in temperatures of -60° to 250° F (-51° to 121° C)
Bronze
Rigid, porous, oil-impregnated metal insert exclusively for low pace (max 250 RPM) applications requiring substantial torque abilities
Not affected by water, oil, dirt, or excessive temperatures – operates in temperatures of -40° to 450° F (-40° to 232° C)
