Lovejoy Oldham couplings are used to connect two drive shafts for transmitting torque while accomodating parallel misalignment, absorbing shock and providing electrical isolation. These units feature two aluminium hubs with a polyacetal slotted disc allowing full-free movement of the hubs and providing torsional stiffness and high torque capacity at a maximum temperature of 176 degrees F. They further come with an anti-backlash design for eliminating the need of additional lubrication; ideal for use with shaft encoders, medical equipment and stepper motors. Choose from a wide range of these MOL Series couplings available in 3/16 to 1/2 inch bore diameters on Raptor Supplies.

These motion control couplings feature zero backlash design to correct parallel and angular misalignments up to .012 inches and 2 degrees, respectively. Further, they feature aluminium hubs with stainless steel discs to offer torsional stiffness up to 22125 in-lbs/rad and are capable of withstanding temperatures up to 300 degrees F. Choose from a wide range of these mini disc style couplings, available in variants delivering speed ranging from 2400 to 4800 rpm on Raptor Supplies.
Lovejoy bellows clamp style couplings are suitable for accommodating axial, parallel & angular misalignment while providing high torsional stiffness between shafts & electric motors. These couplings feature aluminium hubs with stainless steel bellows for low reactionary loading and selected models have compact design for low inertia. Choose from a broad range of these coupling bellows, available in 12700 & 15000 rpm options on Raptor Supplies.
Lovejoy double beam couplings are suitable for power transmission & accommodating parallel, angular & axial misalignment for stepper drives, encoders and servo drives. These motion control couplings feature one-piece aluminium construction and offer two flex points for accommodating up to 7 degrees angular misalignment and zero-backlash design for safe & fail-proof operation. Choose from a wide variety of these couplings, available in outside diameter ranging from 12.7 to 38.1 mm on Raptor Supplies.
Lovejoy BWLC Series bellows clamp style couplings provide flexibility, misalignment compensation and torque transmission in various applications, such as motion control systems, robotics, industrial machinery, pumps and compressors. They consist of a steel bellow element and two aluminium / steel hubs that accommodates angular, parallel and axial misalignments between connected shafts while providing high torsional stiffness for accuracy and repeatability. The hubs can be easily mounted onto the shafts with the bellow positioned in between by using screws or clamps and reducing stress / wear on the connected equipment.
Motion control beam couplingsare flexible couplings that use either one or more spiral slots cut in a single metal rod piece, thereby forming a spring centre section known as a beam or helical coil. The beam portions of these couplings flex for accommodating misalignments while continuing to transfer power between the attached shafts. Lovejoyaluminium clamp style single beam couplings are designed for parallel, angular & axial misalignments of shafts requiring less weight & zero backlash. Lovejoy clamp style single beam couplings are recommended for use in light duty applications such as coupling a servo motor to a lead screw in motion control systems. These single beam couplings have quicker response time as compared to stainless steel couplers. These beam couplings accommodate parallel misalignment up to 0.005 inches, angular misalignments up to 5 degrees and axial motion up to 0.01 inches. These clamp-style beam couplings can either be installed or replaced without the movement of shafts. These Lovejoy single beam couplings feature single piece construction with anodised aluminium finish to provide longer service life in comparison to couplings with moving parts. They are resistant to corrosion and can be operated at a maximum temperature of 200 degrees F.
Parker PD Series couplers are suitable for connecting or disconnecting diagnostic test port connectors with nipples (male thread end) to provide a mechanical sealing (rated at 6000 PSI) and some degree of misalignment between two components. These couplings feature galvanised steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance, push to connect operation for quick interlocking, flush face valves for minimising air intrusion & spillage and nitrile sealant for leakproof bonding. They are compliant with SAE standards that allow global interchangeability with other test point couplings having similar specifications and are available in NPTF and UNF type connections.
Parker FS Series non-spill quick couplings with flush face valves are used for reducing spillage and air inclusion when connecting / disconnecting hoses to prevent minimal environmental contamination during dispensing of fluids. These units are made of 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance and fluorocarbon seals to provide leakproof transferring of chemicals and corrosive fluids. Their push to connect mechanism allows quick connection with one hand, thereby making them an ideal choice for application in chemical and food processing industries where safety is the primary concern. Choose from an array of these couplings, available in 6, 12 and 50 gallon/minute flow rates.
