This is the 5mm variant of the Aluminum Flexible Shaft Coupling 5mm x 5mm in 3D Printer Coupling. Available at ₹77.88 (₹66.00 + GST) with free shipping across India.
Product Description
This is a flexible motor coupling that can connect a driving shaft and a driven shaft while efficiently eliminating any misalignment. It also has minimal backlash, which is ideal for this Aluminium Flexible Shaft Coupling 5mm x 5mm.
This coupling has an outer diameter of 19mm and a length of 25mm. It is made of machined aluminum and has two bores of 5mm each.
It has a spiral cut along its length that makes it flexible enough to fit two shafts even if they are not perfectly aligned. This reduces the binding effects and improves the performance. This type of coupling is also called a Beam coupling, a helical coupling, or a Flexible coupling.
Some of the benefits of using a flexible shaft coupling are:
– It acts like a spring in the linear axes (X, Y, and Z) but not in the rotational axis. This means that it does not increase the backlash and is suitable for precise CNC work.
– It is a device that transmits power and torque between shafts. It does not allow the shafts to disconnect during operation, unless it has a torque limiting feature that can slip or disconnect when the torque exceeds a certain limit.
– It can reduce maintenance costs and downtime by being carefully selected, installed, and maintained.
– It can protect the shafts from harmful effects caused by misalignment, shock loads, shaft expansion, or vibrations
Features:
- Corrosion resistance and High Durability
- One piece construction with long-lasting performance
- Torsional stiffness: Zero backlash
- Low moment of inertia offering constant velocity
