Design: * Both clamping hubs are completely separable, due to split hubs and two radial screws ISO 4762 on each hub. * Any imbalance of the clamping hubs is compensated for by balancing bores located on the inside of the hub. Temperature range: -30° C to +100° C (-22° F to +212° F) Backlash: Absolutely […]

R+W miniature bellows couplings
Where torques as low as 0.05 Nm are to be transmitted and shaft diameters as small as 1mm are to be connected, miniature bellows couplings (MK series) from R+W are the right choice. As a result of the trend toward miniaturization – for example, in medical technology, laboratory equipment, and micro-pumps – this product plays […]
ComInTec GSF bellows coupling
The GSF bellow couplings have been designed and manufactured for all applications requiring excellent dynamic characteristics, necessary for high speeds, fast reversing, and, at the same time, torsional rigidity with low inertia without compromising the high reliability. The coupling is made in three different and modular elements, in order to obtain high flexibility in assembling […]
Hexelus presents the GSF family of Servo Couplings
ComInTec’s GSF Bellows couplings are shaft connections for positive-locking torque transmission. The flexible bellows offer both extremely high torsional rigidity as well as substantial mounting flexibility. They are particularly suitable for axial, radial, and angular shaft misalignments. Hubs made in fully turned aluminum – NOT cast Bellows in stainless steel. Suitable for applications with high […]
R+W MODEL BK8 flange-mounted precision bellows couplings
Increasing demands for high-quality motion transfer in compact and efficient machinery require that every component be evaluated, including connecting elements. When optimizing for highly dynamic motion, balance, and positioning accuracy, many mechanical designers are moving away from traditional shafted connections – opting instead for a more direct method of attachment for flexible joints. R+W has […]
What’s reducing the service life of your metal bellows coupling?
It is generally assumed – and typical applications confirm – that metal bellows couplings reliably work over the entire service life of an installation if the coupling is correctly designed. In the future, this can no longer be taken for granted as applications are becoming more and more dynamic. Such applications require you to consider […]
Timken BWLC (bellows clamp) Series coupling
The BWLC (Bellows Clamp) Series coupling specifically addresses higher torque and bore capacities in the area of motion control. The BWLC Series offers the highest amount of torsional stiffness for accuracy and repeatability. The BWLC Series coupling features a corrosion-resistant steel bellow and aluminum or steel hubs. The BWLC Series also has a torque capacity […]
Ruland expands range of bellows couplings
Ruland Manufacturing has expanded its line of bellows couplings to include an outer diameter of 2-1/4-in. (57 mm), allowing for larger bore sizes and increased torque and torsional stiffness capabilities. Designers prefer to specify bellows couplings in servo-driven systems due to their high accuracy and repeatability. This size expansion now allows for bore sizes up […]
Ruland aluminum MBCK33-14-8-A bellows coupling
Ruland MBCK33-14-8-A is a clamp bellows coupling with 14mm x 8mm bores, 33.3mm OD, 42.9mm length, and 5mm x 2mm keyways. It is zero-backlash and has a balanced design for reduced vibration at high speeds. MBCK33-14-8-A is comprised of two anodized aluminum hubs and a stainless steel bellows. The bellows are able to flex while […]
