Cross
& Morse offers the following
types of flexible shaft couplings which can
cater for the requirements
of most types of drive installation. |
Roller
Chain Couplings - Type LRC
Low to medium speeds. 2,000
rpm without cover. (5,000 rpm
with cover.) High torque capacity.
Moderate alignment capabilities.
Spun Aluminium covers available.
Use
Roller Chain Couplings:- |
|
| |
-
For
moderate speed, steady
load applications such
as hydraulic pumps
-
For
high static or starting
loads
-
For
easy connection and disconnection
of driver and driven
 |
 |
Delrin
Couplings - Type LNC
Medium
to high speed 100-5,000 rpm
range. Moderate misalignment
capability. Corrosion proof
Delrin chain, no lubrication
requirements. Use Delrin
couplings:- |
-
For
food processing, textile
and other machinery to
avoid use of oil or grease
-
Where
corrosion is normally
a problem from atmospheric
conditions
-
For the safety feature
of the smooth outer surface
without a cover
-
For centrifugal pumps
and steady load applications

'L'Series
- Jaw Couplings with spider
inserts
Medium
to high speed. Up to 31,000
rpm. Low cost coupling. Four
different insert materials offer
selection versatility. Interchangeable
with industry Std.
Use Type L Couplings:- |
 |
| |
- To
accommodate high speed misalignment
-
For oily and dirty environments
-
In clean room, food processing
and electronics industries
|
 |
Elastomeric
Couplings - Type KE - with spider
inserts
Low
to medium speed, 7,700 rpm maximum
speed. Able to absorb shock
loads and accommodate moderate
misalignment. Use Type KE
Couplings:- |
-
For oily and dirty environments
-
To transmit high torque
levels
-
For quick, easy assembly
with taper bushes
-
Ease of shaft alignment
|
Elastomeric
Couplings - Type GE - with spider
inserts
Medium
to high speed, up to 14,000
rpm. Good misalignment capabilities
combined ability to absorb shock.
Suitable for most industrial
environments. Use Type GE
Couplings:- |
 |
| |
-
To accommodate high speed
misalignment
-
For oily and dirty environments
-
Where low levels backlash
is required
-
In clean room environments
