Dayton rigid shaft couplings are suitable for delivering a fixed union between two shafts when flexibility is not required. They are ideal for light to medium-duty applications, such as motion control, power transmission, food processing, medical, maintenance, repair and operation
Dayton shaft couplings are manufactured for applications where alignment is necessary and backlash prevention is required. These rigid shaft couplings envelop around hard or soft shafts without deforming. They are also equipped with vibration-resistant screws and have black oxide finish for resisting corrosion on exposed surfaces. Choose from a range of these shaft couplings, available in 1/4, 3/4, 3/8, 5/16 and 5/8 inch bore diameters.
Features
Dayton rigid shaft coupling feature steel construction with zinc-plated / black oxide finish for structural rigidity and resisting corrosion on exposed surfaces.
They offer maximum torque ranging from 60 to 2600 lb-inches.
These rigid shaft couplings deliver speeds up to 1800 rpm.
They are available in 1/4, 3/4, 3/8, 5/16 and 5/8 inch bore diameters.
Selected models have vibration-resistant screws and a groove where key can insert to transfer power between the shaft and the coupling.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a keyway in these Dayton rigid shaft couplings?
It is a slot cut in a part of a shaft coupling to ensure correct orientation with another part fitted with a compatible key. This keyway also prevents pushing the wrong key into the wrong slot.
What is the significance of vibration-resistant screws?
Vibration resistance screws are used in rigid shaft coupling to prevent the coupling from loosening due to vibration, thereby extending the coupling life.
