We supply flexible sleeve for S-Flex coupling in three types: one-piece solid, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split style and design supplies solutions for applications with distinctive necessities exactly where little shaft separations inhibit the set up of the one-piece solid sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter in the sleeve engage with teeth of your coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are desired to connect the flanges using the versatile sleeve which securely lock collectively below torque for smooth transmission of electrical power
Torque is transmitted by means of shear loading of your sleeve
All three sleeve elements are extremely elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to guard connected tools from dangerous shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Forms
These sleeves function a one-piece layout molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Forms, the one-piece layout is split to provide for ease of set up and removal.
E, N Sleeve Kinds
These sleeves characteristic a two-piece layout 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 wherever there is difficulty in separating the shafts in the driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Kinds
These sleeves attribute both a one-piece reliable (H) and two-piece split
(HS) design and style and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit energy for high torque applications. Because of your design and the properties of your 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 Resources
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 gives 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.
