For the beam coupling, determine if the coupling should be mounted with set screws or by the split/clamp method. The split clamp method is recommended for accurate positioning. The nominal torque should be treated as the design torque for the Beam coupling design. If the Beam coupling application is non-reversing, the listed torque rating can be used for comparison. If the application is reversing, reduce the nominal torque figure by half.
The ASB (Aluminum Single Beam) Series offers additional outside diameter and overall length
dimensions to the EC Series of Beam couplings. These options are extremely helpful in
applications where the space available for a coupling is limited.
The ASB series also offers
slightly larger bore capacities than their equivalent size in the EC Series. The 5 sizes of the
ASB Series along with the 3 clamping sizes in the EC Series give designers more options for
applications with limited coupling space.

The Beam flexible coupling is formed from one piece of aluminum rod. A spiral
slot is cut through the length of the aluminum tube forming a “spring” center
section referred to as a helical coil or beam. The flexure allowed by the beam
portion of the coupling is capable of accommodating angular, parallel and axial
misalignment while continuing to convey power between the attached shafts.
This results in a single piece, true flexible coupling.
The Miniature Beam coupling is designed for very light power transmission
applications where accurate positioning of shafts is an essential requirement.
It also has a very high tolerance to heat, chemicals, and corrosion that would
be harmful to conventional ...

The ADB (Aluminum Double Beam) Series coupling enhances the beam coupling options
available from Lovejoy Inc. The longer overall length allows the ADB series to span longer
BSE (between shaft end) measurements.
The aluminum material used in its construction
keeps the coupling’s weight low. The ADB design offers two flex points allowing for greater
angular misalignment, up to 7°. This design also allows for up to .024 inches of parallel
misalignment. The torque capacity ADB series is more than double the range of the single
beam designs, with the largest size having a torque capacity of 88 in-lbs.
