TB Wood's 5J coupling sleeve insert is ideal for reliable and efficient connection between two rotating shafts for protecting systems from end float, vibration and shock misalignment. It is used in motors, blowers, compressors, conveyors, mixers & pumps for power transmission.
Features:
It features a one-piece solid design that ensures sturdy and robust construction, enhancing overall reliability and longevity.
This coupling sleeve is made from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber for resisting heat, weathering and ozone.
It has an operating temperature range of -30 to 275 degrees F and a rated torque of 312 lb-inches.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to install this TB Woods 5J coupling sleeve insert?
A.
Thoroughly examine all coupling components and eliminate any protective coatings, lubricants, paint or rust from bores, mating surfaces and fasteners. Ensure that shafts are free from any existing burrs or imperfections.
Employ keys as necessary and slide one hub onto each shaft. If utilising QD or Taper-Lock hubs, adhere to the instructions provided with the SureGrip or Taper-Lock bushings.
For spacer couplings use high-speed rings, loosely install one ring on each half element.
Position one-half element on the hubs to determine the appropriate hub spacing. If employing spacer elements with high-speed rings, hold both half elements on the hubs to confirm that the rings do not encounter any interference.
Securely fasten hubs to shafts to prevent any movement during alignment procedures.
Without rotating the coupling, employ a calliper to measure the widest point around the hub. Adjust the calliper to the narrowest point using feeler gauges. Reposition the equipment until this value is minimised.
Utilising the misalignment value obtained in the previous step, consult the maximum allowable parallel misalignment. Without rotating the shafts, utilise a straight edge around the hub and determine the maximum offset using feeler gauges. If necessary, readjust the shafts and recheck parallel alignment.
Tighten fasteners on the motor and drive equipment according to the manufacturer's specifications. Recheck both parallel and angular alignments.
Once the parallel and angular alignment values fall within the service ratings, ensure that all set screws, cap screws and other fasteners are securely tightened as specified. Recheck both parallel and angular alignments after tightening.
Install the coupling guard as per relevant safety regulations.
Periodically inspect the alignment, as settling can often cause changes in equipment position.
Q. What is the maximum speed of this TB Woods 5J coupling sleeve insert?
A. It has a maximum speed of 7600 RPM.
Q. How to determine the proper size of TB Woods 5J coupling sleeve insert?
A.
Identify the specific type of prime mover utilised, whether it is an electric motor, internal combustion engine or another power source.
Assess the distinctive characteristics of the driven equipment's load, encompassing aspects, such as starting torque, speed fluctuations, shock loads and other pertinent parameters. Additionally, consider the service factor, which accounts for the duty cycle of the application, as well as any intermittent or peak loads.
Based on the power output of the prime mover and the load requirements, calculate the necessary design horsepower or design torque required for the coupling. This calculation incorporates factors like speed, torque and efficiency to ensure that the coupling can effectively handle the desired power transmission.
Once the design horsepower or torque has been determined, select a suitable coupling that can meet the specified requirements. Consider various factors, including coupling type, size and specific features that align with the demands of the application.
