Shaft Coupling uxcell 1/2″ Bore Rigid Set Screw Coupling Black Oxide

Description

Product Overview

The uxcell shaft coupling is engineered to deliver a solid, rigid link between two rotating shafts, ensuring seamless power transmission in demanding industrial applications. Featuring a 1/2″ bore, 1″ outer diameter, and a compact 1-1/2″ overall length, this coupling fits a wide range of standard motor shafts and driven equipment. Constructed from high‑grade carbon steel, the body is treated with a black‑oxide coating that provides superior corrosion resistance and a durable finish capable of withstanding harsh environments. The design incorporates two precision set screws that lock the coupling securely to the shaft, eliminating slippage and minimizing maintenance. With its straightforward geometry, the coupling offers a low‑profile solution that reduces overall assembly height while maintaining high torque capacity. The product dimensions are 11.73 x 5.43 x 1.1 inches, weighing just 3.88 ounces, making it easy to handle and install.

Usage

This rigid set‑screw coupling is ideal for a variety of rotating equipment found in manufacturing, processing, and material handling facilities. It excels in applications such as motor‑driven pumps, compressors, generators, conveyors, and gearboxes where precise alignment and reliable torque transfer are critical. The black‑oxide finish makes it suitable for environments with exposure to moisture, chemicals, or elevated temperatures, ensuring long‑term performance without premature wear. Installation is quick and does not require specialized tools; simply align the bore with the shaft, insert the set screws, and tighten to the recommended torque. The coupling’s compact size allows it to be used in confined spaces, making it a preferred choice for retrofit projects and new equipment designs alike. Whether you are upgrading an existing system or building a new line, this coupling provides a dependable connection that supports efficient operation and reduces downtime.

FAQ

What shaft sizes are compatible with this coupling?

The coupling is designed for a 1/2″ bore, which fits standard shafts ranging from 0.500″ to 0.525″ in diameter. For best results, ensure the shaft surface is clean and free of burrs before installation.

Can this coupling be used in high‑temperature applications?

Yes. The carbon‑steel body and black‑oxide coating can tolerate temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) continuously, making it suitable for many industrial heating environments.

How do I determine the correct torque for the set screws?

We recommend tightening each set screw to 5‑7 Nm (44‑62 in‑lb) using a calibrated torque wrench. This torque range provides a secure lock while preventing over‑stress on the shaft or coupling.

Is the coupling suitable for both clockwise and counter‑clockwise rotation?

Absolutely. The symmetric design allows the coupling to transmit torque in either direction without performance loss, making it versatile for reversible motor setups.

What warranty does uxcell offer for this product?

uxcell provides a one‑year limited warranty covering material defects and workmanship. If you encounter any issues within this period, contact our support team for a replacement or repair solution.
