Collection: Couplings - Spider Type C Complete

A selection of Spider Type C Complete Couplings. Miniature aluminium curved jaw flexible couplings. 2 to 160 Nm. Match only hubs and spiders from listings SPIDER TYPE C. Inserts are held between the jaws of two hubs.

• Jaw coupling that transmits torque between two rotating shafts using a central, star-shaped elastomeric insert called a spider.
• Coupling includes two hubs (often cast iron), the spider insert (made of materials like polyurethane or rubber), and a collar with hardware to hold it all together.
• The shape and material absorb shocks and vibrations and accommodate minor misalignments, while its hardness can be adjusted to change the coupling's stiffness and torque capacity.
• Discs (either red as standard with blue or white optional) are available to purchase separately.
• Flexible couplings transmit torque and rotational angle while absorbing misalignment.
• When the misalignment exceeds allowable values, vibration may result or the life of the coupling may become shortened.
• Zero backlash in low torque application, made capable by having the hubs pressed in a spacer.
• Can be used as a flexible coupling in a high torque application. Polyurethane spider.
