Nm) |
Backlash-free, torsionally stiff metal bellows couplings are ready
to install when delivered. The metal bellows are made of anti-corrosive
stainless steel, all other parts are manufactured from aluminum
or steel and have an environmental friendly protective coating.
As standard, the boreholes are equipped with a fitting in accordance
with ISO-H7. For the shafts, we recommend a transition fit, e.g.
H7/g6. Other hub to shaft fits are available, consult Autogard.
The torque transmission between coupling hub and shaft occurs through
friction force between the contact surfaces. Special attention must
be paid to the tightening torque of the retaining screws as well
as the perfect condition of the contact surfaces. The contact surfaces
must be free of oil and grease. Types with a keyway are available.
The torques indicated in the lists of Technical Data can only be
safely transferred if these points are complied with.
