We give flexible sleeve for S-Flex coupling in three styles: one-piece strong, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split style supplies remedies for applications with one of a kind specifications exactly where tiny 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 the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are required to connect the flanges with all the versatile sleeve which securely lock with each other under torque for smooth transmission of power
Torque is transmitted through shear loading of the sleeve
All three sleeve elements are remarkably elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to safeguard connected products from hazardous shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves feature a one-piece design molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Styles, the one-piece style is split to provide for ease of set up and removal.
E, N Sleeve Sorts
These sleeves feature a two-piece design with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece style and design is ideal for applications exactly where there is difficulty in separating the shafts of the driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves feature both a one-piece strong (H) and two-piece split
(HS) design and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit power for high torque applications. Because of your design and style and the properties of 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 Resources
EPDM ?§C Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex couplings are supplied with EPDM versatile sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
NEOPRENE ?§C Neoprene provides 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.
