This flexible coupling flector is a nitrile elastomer coupling designed to transmit rotary motion while accommodating small shaft misalignments in Compact assemblies. It connects rotating shafts in constrained spaces and reduces transmitted vibration through material compliance, making it suitable for precision motion transfer where minor angular and linear offsets occur.
Features and Benefits
- Made from nitrile for resilient vibration dampening
Accepts 16 mm shaft sizes for Compact installations
Length 10 mm enables installation in tight axial spaces
Compensates 1° angular misalignment to protect bearings
Allows 0.25 mm axial movement to accommodate endfloat
Corrects 0.38 mm parallel offset to maintain torque transfer
Applications
- Suitable for precision drivetrains with small offsets
Ideal for Compact motor-to-gearbox connections
Used with servo systems requiring vibration reduction
Can be used for laboratory rotary test rigs
Used for small industrial actuators with limited space
What material properties affect dampening performance?
The nitrile composition provides elastic compliance that absorbs high-frequency vibration and reduces shock transmission between shafts.
How does the component handle shaft endplay during operation?
It permits axial displacement of up to 0.25 mm, allowing controlled endfloat without imposing high axial loads on connected components.
What alignment error will it tolerate between two shafts?
It compensates for angular mismatches up to 1° and lateral offsets up to 0.38 mm to preserve rotational continuity.
What installation space should be allowed for correct fitment?
A minimum axial envelope equal to the 10 mm length Plus clearance for clamping is recommended to ensure unobstructed installation.
Which shaft diameter is compatible without modification?
Designed for direct use with 16 mm shafts, matching bore requirements for simple integration.
Selection guidance
- Review the manufacturer specifications for compatibility with your equipment.
- Confirm the required dimensions and fitting arrangement before ordering.
- Check the intended operating conditions against the product documentation.
