Nylon Sleeve Gear Couplings

Nylon sleeve gear couplings are a type of flexible coupling used to connect two shafts for the purpose of transmitting torque while compensating for misalignment. These couplings are composed of two metal hubs, which are connected to the shaft ends, and a nylon sleeve that fits over the hubs.

The metal hubs typically feature external gear teeth, which mesh with the internal gear teeth of the nylon sleeve. This gear arrangement ensures that torque is transmitted smoothly between the shafts while allowing for a certain degree of angular, parallel, and axial misalignment.

The nylon sleeve provides flexibility and dampens vibration, which helps to protect the connected equipment from damage due to misalignment or shock loads. Nylon is chosen for its resilience, resistance to wear, and ability to maintain its properties over a wide range of temperatures.

Nylon sleeve gear couplings are commonly used in applications such as pumps, compressors, conveyors, and other industrial machinery where reliable torque transmission and flexibility are required. They are valued for their durability, ease of installation, and ability to provide efficient power transmission while minimizing stress on the connected components.
