With a rigid gear design, these steel couplings transmit more torque than other couplings of the same size.

A flexible tire on these couplings safeguards components on your shafts by reducing vibration and shock.

Magnetic force transfers torque from one half of these couplings to the other; there’s no contact between the parts, so they won’t wear. Couplings compensate for angular and parallel misalignment.

One end has a finished bore size; the other can be machined to any size—great for connecting to uncommon shaft sizes and shafts that are undersized from wear or oversized from coatings.

When other one-piece clamping couplings won’t fit your shafts, we’ll machine a shaft coupling with the exact shaft diameters you need.

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.

Machine the pilot hole in these couplings to whatever size you need. Often used for shafts that are undersized from wear or oversized from coatings. These couplings are two-piece, so you can remove and reinstall them without moving your shafts.

Tell us the size of each shaft, and we'll machine a custom two-piece coupling to meet your needs.

Support the weight of a motor and transfer torque to another shaft at the same time with these couplings.

Also known as hysteresis clutches, these couplings use magnetic force to brake, control tension, and prevent torque overload. They have few moving parts, so they last longer than mechanical couplings.

Also known as electric hysteresis brakes, these couplings use magnetic force to create drag to slow or stop the motion of your drive system.

These internally threaded rod ends have an eyelet and a ball that swivels to support angular misalignment. Also known as rod-end bearings.

A PTFE-embedded insert or PTFE liner reduces wear, handles shock loads, and eliminates the need for lubrication.
