GUARDEX COUPLING : Nylon Sleeve Gear Coupings, Couplings.

FEATURES OF THE GUARDEX COUPLING Double crowned tooth design provides free axial movement, low friction and minimum stress during misalignment. Designs are available with up to 3/8" axial travel. Molded nylon sleeve with high torsional stiffness, free from any internal frictional losses or heat build-up. A torsionally stiff coupling with minimum backlash. Nylon and steel components allow high ambient temperature operation without lubrication or maintenance. Continuous operating ambients in the ranges between (-) 13ºF and (+) 180ºF. Heat stabilized polyamide available for temperatures up to (+) 250ºF. Nylon sleeves resistant to dirt, moisture, most chemicals and petroleum products. No lubrication, seals or retainers to maintain. Easy clean-up and visual inspection. Compact and lightweight design with high torque and low inertia. Minimum shaft gap for close-coupled applications. Precision molded concentric sleeve and hubs for high speed applications. No bolts, pins, flanges or protrusions to affect balance or safety. Smooth exterior surface. Blind assembly with slip-together components for easy inspection and adjustment without disassembly. Metric, Standard, Splined bores available.
