Star-shaped elastomer spider for jaw couplings, with radial arms that transmit torque and damp vibration....
Product Details
Product Overview
This item is the star spider element. Arms between the jaws transmit torque in compression, so the element tolerates shock loads better than a rigid insert.
Structure and Key Features
- Split hubs allow element renewal without moving the motor.
- Elastomer compensates axial, radial and angular misalignment.
- Bolts are grade-matched and tightened to the specified torque.
Specifications and Selection
Confirm outer diameter and arm count against the hub; incorrect arm count prevents seating.
Applications
General industrial drives with reversing or shock loads.
Frequently Asked Questions
Spider wears quickly
Check alignment and ambient temperature; heat and misalignment are the usual causes of rapid wear.
