We give flexible sleeve for S-Flex coupling in three designs: one-piece sound, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split style and design delivers remedies for applications with one of a kind demands in which modest shaft separations inhibit the installation of a one-piece strong sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter with the sleeve engage with teeth with the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are desired to connect the flanges with all the flexible sleeve which securely lock with each other below torque for smooth transmission of power
Torque is transmitted by shear loading with the sleeve
All three sleeve elements are remarkably elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to protect connected tools from unsafe shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Sorts
These sleeves function a one-piece style and design molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Kinds, the one-piece style is split to provide for ease of set up and removal.
E, N Sleeve Varieties
These sleeves attribute a two-piece design and style with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece layout is ideal for applications where there is difficulty in separating the shafts on the driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves characteristic both a one-piece solid (H) and two-piece split
(HS) design and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit energy for high torque applications. Because of your style and the properties from the Hytrel molded sleeve, the H and HS sleeves should not be used as direct replacements for EPDM or Neoprene sleeves, and can only be used with S, TF, or SC flanges.
Sleeve Materials
EPDM ?§C Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex couplings are supplied with EPDM flexible sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
NEOPRENE ?§C Neoprene delivers very good performance characteristics for most applications and offers a very good resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is black with a green dot.
HYTREL ?§C Hytrel is a polyester elastomer designed for high torque and high temperature applications and offers excellent resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is orange.
