These are the most popular flexible shaft couplings in Japan that comply with JIS B 1452-1991 "Flexible flanged shaft couplings".
A simple structure made of a flange and coupling bolts. Easy to install.
The bushing between the flange and coupling bolts alleviates the effects of torque fluctuation and impacts during startup and shutdown.
The bushing can be replaced simply by removing the coupling bolt, enabling easy maintenance.
Permits lateral/angular misalignment, and reduces noise. Prevents the thrust load from being transmitted.
2 types are available, a cast iron FCL type and a carbon steel FCLS type.
FCL - Flexible Flanged Shaft Coupling :
The most popular flexible shaft coupling in Japan that is compliant with JIS B 1452-1991 "Flexible Flanged Shaft Couplings".
Simple structure comprised of a flange and coupling bolts. Easy-to-mount.
Bushings can be replaced just by removing coupling bolts. This makes maintenance and service easy.
While it absorbs misalignment such as eccentricity and argument, it prevents noise by absorbing torsional vibration. It will not transmit thrust load, either.
Two types are available: Cast Iron FCL and Carbon Steel FCLS.
