Saga 34 Coupling Hardware

Lovejoy, 68514422349, Saga 34 Coupling Hardware, Bolt and Washer SetFeatures:No end thrust in misalignment position Absorbs misalignment and shock No axial reaction force to damage or accelerate wear in system bearingsAccepts constant angular misalignment of up to 3° Parallel tolerance of 0.060 (1.5mm), while reaction force remains low Lateral softness without complication, or sacrifice of performance or durability Natural rubber can operate in temperatures from -60° to 200° F (-51° to 93° C) Saga is a general purpose, torsionally soft coupling with high tolerance to all forms of misalignment. The design features hexagonal or octagonal rubber donut-shaped elements with metal inserts positioned at each apex during the vulcanization process. These metal inserts carry actual bolts which fix the element to tines on cast, cylindrical hubs. Embedded inserts also have tines which connect with mating surfaces on hubs so that axial bolts can be easily torqued during assembly without twisting the rubber beyond the limits of its elasticity. The rubber between each apex is pre-compressed, so it is much more durable to the stresses arising from the various forms of misalignment and torsional vibrations. Note: A complete Saga coupling is comprised of 2 hubs, an elastomeric donut, and hardware. For higher speeds, balancing may be necessary. Standard bores by 1/16 inch increments. Some metric sizes also as standard.
