The primary function of flexible jaw couplings is to transmit torque from one shaft to another without any radial or axial movement. The design of HB Couplings' Flexible Jaw Couplings allows them to achieve this function with a minimal amount of backlash, even under conditions of significant misalignment.
The secret behind the success of HB Couplings' Flexible Jaw Couplings is the use of a polyurethane element between the aluminium hubs. This material is flexible enough to absorb misalignments while still providing a robust connection between the two shafts.
One of the key benefits of these couplings is their ability to handle high torque loads with ease. This is due to the durability and resilience of the polyurethane element, which can flex and twist without losing its shape or strength.
Another advantage of HB Coupling's Flexible Jaw Couplings is their ability to handle angular misalignments. These occur when the shafts are at an angle to each other, which can put significant stress on the coupling. Fortunately, the polyurethane element is flexible enough to accommodate these misalignments, reducing the risk of damage and failure.
Parallel misalignments are also well-handled by these couplings. In many cases, parallel misalignments occur when the two shafts are not perfectly aligned, which can cause significant stress on the coupling over time. Again, HB Coupling's Flexible Jaw Couplings are designed to absorb these stresses and protect the machinery from damage.
When it comes to durability and longevity, HB Coupling's Flexible Jaw Couplings are hard to beat. The aluminium hubs are made from high-quality materials that are resistant to wear and tear, as well as corrosion and fatigue. The polyurethane element is also highly durable, ensuring that the couplings can withstand heavy usage for extended periods.
All in all, HB Coupling's Flexible Jaw Couplings are an excellent choice for anyone needing a reliable and robust coupling for their machinery. With their ability to handle significant misalignments, heavy load capacities, and resistance to damage and wear, these couplings are a smart investment that will serve you well for years to come. So, if you are in the market for a new coupling, consider HB Coupling's Flexible Jaw Couplings and enjoy their excellent performance and long-lasting reliability.
