when the two shafts are slightly misaligned. Flexible couplings can
accommodate varying degrees of misalignment up to
3. In addition to allowing for misalignment, flexible
couplings can also be used for vibration damping or
noise reduction. The following types of flexible
couplings are the most common:

There are 3 types of jaw couplings: Straight Jaw,

consist of three basic components: two hubs and one
insert. The straight jaw couplings are the standard style and can operate in
torque ranges from 3.5 ft-lb (4.7 Nm) to 170,004 ft-lb (230,233 Nm).
Curved jaw couplings are similar to straight jaw, but the teeth of the hubs
and insert are curved to accommodate additional torque. These couplings
can transmit torques between 67 ft-lb (91 Nm) and 247,800 ft-lb (335,590
Nm). The JIS coupling is similar to the other two, but has an additional
component. A locking ring is used to secure a split insert. The advantage of
this style is the insert can be replaced without moving the two hubs. JIS
couplings can transmit torques from 335 ft-lb (454 Nm) to 183,333 ft-lb
(248,284 Nm). All of the jaw type couplings can accommodate angular
misalignment up to 1.
GEAR COUPLINGS
Gear couplings use gear teeth to transmit torque from
one shaft to another. The coupling accommodates
misalignment through the clearance between the inner
and outer gear teeth. This allows for the coupling to

(208 ft-lb or 282 Nm) to
47,269,000 in-lb (393,908 ft-lb or 533,462 Nm) and
has an angular misalignment capacity of 3.

FLUID COUPLINGS
Fluid couplings are not necessarily a type of flexible
coupling, but are used in association with flexible
couplings. Fluid couplings allow motors to start up

also provides overload protection and shock

coupling to allow for misalignment.

There are many different types of torsional couplings.

Most couplings use a rubber element to transmit torque
between two hubs. The rubber damps any vibrations
moving from one shaft to the other. Torsional couplings are made to adapt to
shafts, flywheels or universal joints.
