Common Forms and Sizes
Sier-Bath couplings are stocked in an assortment of configurations which contain C and F normal hubs and sleeves, Mill Motor hubs, Vertical style, Floating Shaft, and Spacer models. ’s excellent engineering personnel make it possible to support lots of extra coupling types such because the Brakedrum sort, Sliding Hub sort, Shear Pin kind, Jordan variety, and customized lengths for non conventional shaft separations. Further dimension ranges and models to meet uncommon application requirements can also be manufactured by to meet market place demands. Materials can range from regular steel to alloy steel and even stainless steel. The excellent simplicity of the coupling style make this all doable.
Misalignment and End-Float Capability
The basic principle of Sier-Bath C and F type couplings is just like that of other standard versatile gear couplings. Even though it truly is desirable to align shafts as accurately as you can, the objective of any flexible coupling is always to soak up probable angular, parallel, and axial (end-float) misalignment. Sier-Bath couplings utilize a distinctive gear tooth geometry produced especially to resolve troubles with shaft misalignment and accommodate from 1/2° to 1-1/2° per 
gear mesh or flex plane. The hub teeth are entirely crowned to supply for a larger get hold of location and reduced stresses underneath misaligned situations. The crowned tooth design and style also eliminates the vast majority of the end loading that happens on straight gear teeth beneath misalignment.
