We offer flexible sleeve for S-Flex coupling in 3 designs: one-piece solid, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split style offers solutions for applications with unique demands where smaller shaft separations inhibit the set up of a one-piece solid sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter in the sleeve engage with teeth from the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are needed to connect the flanges using the versatile sleeve which securely lock together below torque for smooth transmission of power
Torque is transmitted through shear loading on the sleeve
All 3 sleeve products are very elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to safeguard connected products from dangerous shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Sorts
These sleeves function a one-piece style molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Types, the one-piece design and style is split to provide for ease of installation and removal.
E, N Sleeve Styles
These sleeves characteristic a two-piece layout with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece style and design is ideal for applications the place there is difficulty in separating the shafts of your driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Kinds
These sleeves function both a one-piece reliable (H) and two-piece split
(HS) layout and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit electrical power for high torque applications. Because in the design and the properties on the Hytrel molded sleeve, the H and HS sleeves should not be used as direct replacements for EPDM or Neoprene sleeves, and can only be used with S, TF, or SC flanges.
Sleeve Products
EPDM ?§C Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex couplings are supplied with EPDM versatile sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
NEOPRENE ?§C Neoprene delivers very good performance characteristics for most applications and offers a very good resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is black with a green dot.
HYTREL ?§C Hytrel is a polyester elastomer designed for high torque and high temperature applications and offers excellent resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is orange.
