Shaft couplings take any form of attachment

How Abssac's new Helical Beam couplings take the hassle out of connecting drive shafts

Commonly used as one of the best ways of transmitting rotation from one shaft to another without backlash or torque loss, the way in which you attach the part to the application has often been left to simple locking devices such as a grub screw or locking clamp.

In fact the Helical Beam coupling can actually serve you a lot more.

Mr Chris Cattle, the sales and marketing manager at Abssac says, "The Helical beam coupling range, available only from Abssac, offers a way of integrating the design engineers own end attachment into the standard shaft coupling, but maintaining it one piece construction.

Therefore, we can supply a ready to fit single construction part that can sometimes be comprised of three or more individual parts in the original design.

This way our customer saves money, time and hassle - which is what we all want".

The Key features and benefits are: · Single piece construction · Any form of end attachment can be integrated into the standard shaft coupling design.

· Zero backlash torque transmission · Constant velocity · No lubrication required · No cyclic vibration · Low radial loads when offset · High torsional stiffness End attachments such as, splines, gears, timing belts, clutches, threaded bores can also be added to the basic design for very little additional cost.
