RC Chain Coupling

• Roller Chain Couplings are composed of a double strand roller chain and two sprockets. It has a torque capacity in excess of the torque normally transmitted by shafting which falls within the coupling bore range.

• Select the smallest coupling which will accommodate both shafts. For a reversing operation, shock or pulsating loads, or other severe operating conditions, select the next larger coupling size.

• It is convenient assembly and disassembly, no need to move the connected shafts, long service life and low cost.

• It is suitable for high-temperature, humid and dusty working condition but not suitable for high-speed, severe impact load and axial force transmission.

• A cover should be used to assure maximum service life, particularly if the coupling operates at high speeds or under moist or abrasive conditions.

• For proper lubrication, fill the space between the cover and the coupling with soft to medium consistency bearing grease.
