Tighten the set screws to fasten these couplings to your shaft. Set screws bite into the shaft to hold the couplings in place.

Each hub includes a set screw, which bites into your shaft to hold the coupling in place.

Able to handle high twisting forces as well as misalignment, these couplings are good for high-performance servomotor applications.

Connect shafts and ball screws to high-speed servomotors and stepper motors—these shaft couplings handle four times more speed than standard servomotor couplings.

An acetal plastic spacer at the center of these couplings insulates bearings, encoders, and other shaft components from stray electric current. Use them with servomotors, which sometimes generate current that travels down the shaft and can damage circuit boards, interfere with readings, and cause wear on bearing raceways.

The thick split spider on these couplings can take on twice as much torque as standard spiders, extending the life of bearings, seals, and motors.

Designed to grip evenly around your shaft, these couplings provide more holding power than set screw couplings without marring the shaft.

Designed for use in food-processing applications, where a fraying spider could contaminate a batch, these couplings have a metal-detectable rubber spider. Small pieces of metal inside the rubber will set off a metal detector, alerting you to the problem.

Customize the bore of these flexible couplings to align uncommon shaft sizes as well as shafts that have become undersized from wear or oversized from coatings.

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.

When your shafts are not close enough to use standard couplings, these have the length to bridge the gap.

Access one shaft without disconnecting the other. These rigid couplings have a solid bottom that connects the shafts and two top pieces that clamp the shafts independently.

Reduce the diameter of your shaft while adding length.

If they exceed maximum torque, these couplings disengage, sound an alarm, and then automatically re-engage once the overtorque condition is eliminated.

Adjust your system's torque limit by hand.

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.

Adjust your system's torque limit by hand.

Use these with an overload sensor in an automated system to instantly disconnect power and prevent damage. Couplings also accelerate loads from zero to full speed in less than three milliseconds when the power is turned on.

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.

An oil-embedded bronze insert slowly releases lubricant throughout the life of the rod end.

Connect your grease gun to the fitting to lubricate.

These internally threaded steel rod ends handle loads that are at least 25% higher than other comparably sized rod ends.

An innovative body design keeps the ball from being pushed out when supporting thrust loads.

Along with internal threads, these rod ends have a double row of precision ball bearings that allows high speeds and smooth operation.

Without changing the ID, these inserts handle some misalignment on rod ends.

Pivot and hinge components in wet and corrosive environments with these stainless steel or brass rod end bolts.

Also known as swing bolts and eyebolts, these internally threaded rod end bolts have no moving parts. They're designed to make pivoting or hinge movements in applications that don't need to compensate for misalignment.

Made of stainless steel, these rod end bolts are stronger and more corrosion resistant than our standard flat-shoulder rod end bolts.

With a rubber bushing, these bolts reduce noise and vibration—attach them to rods, pipes, tubes, and cable linkages that have male threading. They’re commonly known as isolated rod ends.
