Bellows Couplings Stainless Steel

Our standard bellows shaft couplings are available in bore sizes ranging from 090 to 625 inches 2 29 to 15 88 mm with maximum torque ratings of 25 to 5000 in oz 0 1 to 19 2 n m.

Bellows couplings stainless steel.

Such hydroformed bellows begin as a sheet of stainless steel or other metal. Properties of bellows coupling model bks. Up to 10 000 rpm. Bellows couplings are typically made from a stainless steel tube that is hydroformed or in some cases welded to create deep corrugations.

All stainless steel bellows are designed. If you don t find a standard product that meets your application requirements we can design a custom product for you. This design creates a low inertia zero backlash coupling with long life properties. Misalignment compensation with zero backlash.

Detailed specifications upon request. This sheet is draw into a a tube which it then pressurized from within against a ribbed die to form a corrugated shape. Our coupling range is available with bore sizes from 2 mm up to 12 mm. The thin wall of the bellows allows the coupling to remain flexible under misalignment conditions while maintaining rigidity under torsional loads.

Bellows couplings are a type of flexible couplings with two clamping hubs connected by a series of flexible stainless steel or bronze bellows corrugations. For the highest accuracy nickel bellows couplings. All have lightweight aluminum hubs and a stainless steel bellows for corrosion resistance. The corrugations absorb axial forces that are created by thermal expansion as the motor heats up meaning bellows couplings can handle higher operating temperatures than elastomer couplings.

Flex b stainless steel. Couplings allow zero backlash no play and grip evenly around your shaft for a strong hold without marring the shaft. For torque transmission stainless steel bellows couplings. The characteristics of the bellows coupling can be modified by varying the number and or the wall thickness of the convolutions of the bellows.

In excess of 10 000 rpm with finely balanced version up to g 2 5. Ruland bellows couplings are comprised of two anodized aluminum hubs and a stainless steel bellows. The couplings are available with three construction options. Material bellows clamping hubs and clamping screws made from stainless steel.

This type of coupling generally has high torsional stiffness and may be used in any drive system where high levels of motion integrity are essential. We have over two decades worth of experience in the design and manufacture of stainless steel bellows and state of the art on site facilities allows us to offer a wide range of bellows suitable for any application and design requirements. Nickel stainless steel and bronze. Arcflex are one of the leading manufacturers of stainless steel bellows and expansion joints in the uk.

Suited for space restricted installations.
