    Two-Piece Rigid Shaft Couplings

    Install and remove these shaft couplings without disconnecting the shafts, motors, and other attached components—they’re made in two pieces so you don’t need to slide them onto shaft ends. They’re also useful when you have limited access to the ends of the shafts. These couplings clamp onto the shafts, creating a secure hold that won’t mar them. Good for high-torque applications, they have a rigid construction. However, their rigidity means these couplings can only connect shafts that are well aligned.

    Set Screw Rigid Shaft Couplings

    Slide these couplings onto the end of your shaft and tighten the set screws to secure. Set screws bite into the shaft to hold the coupling in place. Good for high-torque applications, rigid couplings connect two shafts that are aligned, allowing for no relative movement between the shafts.

    Overload-Protection Spring-Loaded Torque Limiters

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Torque Limiters. Overload-Protection Spring-Loaded Torque Limiters .
    Protect your machinery if there is a jam, emergency stop, or other overload by cutting off torque between shafts when a maximum torque is reached. These torque limiters automatically resume transmitting torque once it drops below the set maximum. They should not be used in applications that frequently exceed the maximum torque. Since they come factory-set to a maximum torque, there’s no adjustment required and no risk of unintended changes to the torque setting.
    They act as a flexible shaft coupling, so they reduce vibration and protect components from wear by compensating for angular and parallel misalignment. Fasten to your shafts by tightening the set screws, which bite into each shaft to hold it.
