In jaw Aluminum Jaw couplings, the element is loaded in compression between the jaws of mating hubs. These jaws operate in the same plane, with the driving hub jaws pushing towards the driven hub jaws. Legs of the elastomeric spider transmit and cushion the force between the driving and driven jaws by being compressed between them.
( 1 ) Lightweight aluminum version of the industry standard shaft coupling. ( 2 ) Interchangeable with L and SS line of hubs. Corrosion resistant (finished bores passivated for additional protection). ( 3 ) Accommodates for angular and parallel shaft misalignment. ( 4 ) No metal to metal contact. ( 5 ) Resistant to oil, dirt, sand, moisture, and grease..
