Bellows shaft couplings offer distinct
advantages
Now available from Abssac is a new range of Stainless Steel bellows shaft couplings designed to meet the needs of the ever increasing torsional requirement in today's power transmission applications
Now available from Abssac Limited in England, a completely new range of Stainless Steel bellows shaft couplings that are designed to meet the needs of the ever increasing torsional requirement in today's power transmission applications Using the latest technology, the double skinned bellows shaft couplings have some very distinct advantages over traditional types of shaft couplings, including the fact that the product offers the highest torsional stiffness rates for the given diameter, whilst still keeping the radial loads low

The new XCT and XCF rolled screw nut designs use a revolutionary Cross Cam design called the Active Cam to eliminate backlash and maintain a high axial stiffness
The main features and benefits are: Extremely High Torsional Stiffness; Low Radial Resistance; High Torque capability; Constant Velocity; Corrosion Resistant; Can be supplied with any bore sizes including keyways; Low Cost; Imperial and metric sized versions; Supplied to ISO9000 Standards.
Manufactured entirely from Stainless Steel, the bellows shaft coupling can still rotate up to 10,000 rpm and accept an angular offset of up to 10 degrees if required.
Phil Jones, Technical coupling expert at Abssac states, " The new Abssac bellows coupling enables us to give the customer a high torsional stiffness, high torque capability but low radial load. Request a free brochure from Abssac ...
This often saves the bearings in the driven system from premature wear.".
