Dentex®
couplings are as suitable for horizontal shaft connection as
they are for vertical connection, for reversing and
intermittent service, and they have electrical insulating
properties, a low weight, a low flywheel effect and, owing
to their compactness, only little space is required for
them.
The steel/plastic combination also has the advantage that no
lubrication by oil or grease is required; the coupling
therefore does not need any maintenance.
The 6,6-polyamide used for the coupling sleeve excells by
its excellent sliding properties and wear resistance
especially by the combination of toughness, hardness and
rigidity; it is also resistant to condensation and splash
water, engine fuels, oils, greases, alcohols, esters,
ketones, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and many other
agents. However, substances of strongly polar character such
as concentrated mineral acids, formic acid, cresol, glycol,
benzyl alcohol can dissolve 6,6-polyamide at high
temperature.
Maximum service reliability is guaranteed at temperatures in
the range from -13°F to +176°F. |
