shaft coupling adapter
Shaft Adapters are designed to modify, extend or repair an existing shaft and provide a fully machineable male output shaft with minimum effort and expense. Standard keyways provide added torque capacity and fixed shaft phasing.
EPT Rigid Shaft Couplings & Shaft Adapters are designed to join shafts of different sizes and configurations, extend shafts, and provide different mating options. Allowing drive system modifications without the need for major redesigns and replacement shafts, they are available in a variety of configurations made from steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and brass.
Suitable for use with pumps, mixers, packaging machinery, conveyors, and related equipment, EPT Rigid Shaft Couplings are available in one-, two-, and three-piece designs with or without keyways. The shaft Adapters are offered in step-up and -down configurations with or without keyways and shaft extensions can be round, square, hex, D, threaded, keyed, and tapered.
A shaft coupling is a mechanical device used to connect two shafts together for the purpose of transmitting torque from one shaft to the other. It provides a reliable and flexible connection that allows for angular misalignment, axial displacement, or both between the shafts.
There are various types of shaft couplings available, each designed for specific application requirements. Some common types include:
Rigid Couplings: These are simple couplings that provide a solid connection between two shafts, without any flexibility or misalignment compensation.
Flexible Couplings: These couplings use flexible elements, such as rubber, metal discs, or elastomers, to accommodate misalignment, axial movement, or both. They help to reduce vibration, shock, and compensate for slight misalignments.
Gear Couplings: Gear couplings consist of interlocking teeth on the hubs, providing high torque transmission capability and accommodating misalignment. They are commonly used in heavy-duty applications.
Universal Couplings: Also known as Hooke's joints, universal couplings are used to transmit torque between shafts that are not aligned in the same axis. They allow for angular misalignment and are commonly found in automotive drive shafts.
Oldham Couplings: These couplings use three discs, with the outer two discs connected to each shaft and a central disc acting as a buffer. They allow for angular misalignment and have low torque transmission capabilities.
Fluid Couplings: Fluid couplings use hydraulic fluid to transmit torque while allowing for misalignment and shock absorption. They are commonly used in large machinery and power transmission systems.
