Part Number 68514446740, LF Series Base Element with Hardware



    The heart of the LF Series coupling is the flexible base element. This element allows the customer to make their own shaft hubs from steel bar stock or use existing hubs. Ideal for quick prototype testing, retrofit and high volume applications.




Unit of Measure: Imperial Metric Both

Notes

Notes 

  • For Hytrel, dynamic torsional stiffness values are non-linear with respect to torque. Value given is for 100% of nominal torque.
  • Angular and parallel misalignment values are dependent on speed, and for rubber elements, should be adjusted according to figure 4. Hytrel® elements are only for applications where the driven component is piloted to the driver for SAE and DIN established alignments (i.e. Hydraulic pump flange-mounted to engine flywheel housing).
  • Hytrel® elements are only for applications where the driven component is piloted to the driver for essentially perfect alignment (hydraulic pump flange-mounted to engine housing).

Torsional Element Specifications
    Elements made of DuPont’s Hytrel® elastomer compound are torsionally much stiffer than natural rubber (20 times stiffer) and were developed for combustion engine / hydraulic pump applications. Hytrel® elements have 20% greater torque capacity as compared to rubber elements. The torsionally stiff Hytrel® element moves the harmful vibration resonance frequency above the operating RPM range. The element design also reduces harmful radial and axial reactionary forces.
  • Operating Temperature Range: -60° to 250° F
  • Maximum Angular Misalignment: 0.25°




Features

Features 

  • Wide range of standard designs and materials
  • Application versatility
