The Morflex®
coupling can compensate for high angular misalignment and is torsionally
flexible. Misalignment working angles range from 1.5 to 10 degrees, making the
Morflex® a unique resilient coupling provides flexibility for the tools to
follow the contour of the floor.
Specially
developed, resilient, non-cold-flow neoprene biscuits are responsible for the
flexibility of the MORFLEX® coupling. Relative movement between shafts is
confined to the controlled displacement of the neoprene. Preloading the
biscuits in assembly permits them to allow considerable deflection, even with
light load. The shape of the neoprene biscuit has been carefully designed for
uniform stress and deflection—an important operational advantage and one which
contributes greatly to the life of the coupling. MORFLEX couplings can be used
in ambient temperatures ranging from 0°F to 200°F.
The MORFLEX
Coupling also has a Universal Driveshaft Series for greater shaft separations
with a slip joint construction, allowing universal action to accommodate
angular or parallel misalignment. The shaft members are full spline
connections, and slide freely under load.
