New Products: High-Precision Miniature Shaft Coupling

    June 16, 2009
    MK1 bellows couplings allow for increased bore diameter within a given coupling size through the use of radial setscrews with unique dismounting grooves

    The MK1 bellows couplings allow for increased bore diameter within a given coupling size through the use of radial setscrews with unique dismounting grooves. The coupling helps adapt between shafts with a large difference in size. The coupling’s stainless-steel bellow compensates for axial, lateral, and angular shaft misalignments simultaneously, while operating with zero backlash and high torsion resistance.

    Available torque ranges are 0.05 to 10 lb-in. and bore sizes from 1 to 28 mm.
