We provide versatile sleeve for S-Flex coupling in 3 models: one-piece sound, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split design offers answers for applications with unique specifications in which smaller shaft separations inhibit the installation of a one-piece solid sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter of your sleeve engage with teeth in the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are wanted to connect the flanges together with the flexible sleeve which securely lock collectively below torque for smooth transmission of power
Torque is transmitted through shear loading on the sleeve
All three sleeve components are extremely elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to guard linked products from dangerous shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves characteristic a one-piece layout molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Styles, the one-piece design is split to provide for ease of installation and removal.
E, N Sleeve Styles
These sleeves characteristic a two-piece style and design with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece style is ideal for applications where there is difficulty in separating the shafts with the driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Forms
These sleeves function both a one-piece reliable (H) and two-piece split
(HS) style and design and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit power for high torque applications. Because of your design and style and the properties on the Hytrel molded sleeve, the H and HS sleeves should not be used as direct replacements for EPDM or Neoprene sleeves, and can only be used with S, TF, or SC flanges.
Sleeve Resources
EPDM ?§C Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex couplings are supplied with EPDM versatile sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
NEOPRENE ?§C Neoprene delivers very good performance characteristics for most applications and offers a very good resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is black with a green dot.
HYTREL ?§C Hytrel is a polyester elastomer designed for high torque and high temperature applications and offers excellent resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is orange.
