We offer flexible sleeve for S-Flex coupling in 3 styles: one-piece reliable, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split style delivers solutions for applications with exceptional prerequisites the place small shaft separations inhibit the set up of a one-piece reliable sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter of the sleeve engage with teeth from the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are required to connect the flanges using the versatile sleeve which securely lock together under torque for smooth transmission of power
Torque is transmitted by means of shear loading of your sleeve
All 3 sleeve supplies are very elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to safeguard connected gear from hazardous shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Varieties
These sleeves feature a one-piece style and design molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Styles, the one-piece style and design is split to provide for ease of set up and removal.
E, N Sleeve Forms
These sleeves attribute a two-piece style and design with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece style is ideal for applications wherever there is difficulty in separating the shafts with the driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Types
These sleeves attribute both a one-piece reliable (H) and two-piece split
(HS) style and 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 in 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 Materials
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 offers 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.
