Frequently Asked Questions

What is a RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Coupling used for?

A RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Coupling, such as the RSC16-5-4-A, is used to connect two shafts in motion-control applications. It compensates for minor misalignment while transmitting torque. Common uses include robotics, encoders, and precision positioning equipment where zero backlash and low inertia are required.

What are the specifications of the RULAND MANUFACTURING RSC16-5-4-A Slit Coupling?

The RULAND MANUFACTURING RSC16-5-4-A is a short clamp-on slit coupling with bore diameters of 5/16 inch and 1/4 inch. Its overall length is 1 1/64 inches. The coupling is made by RULAND MANUFACTURING and is designed for zero-backlash torque transmission in precision shaft connections.

Where to buy RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Couplings worldwide?

You can source RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Couplings, including the RSC16-5-4-A, through 3G Electric. We handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to worldwide destinations. As a global industrial distributor, we provide these couplings for motion-control applications. Contact us for availability and lead times.

How to select the correct RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Coupling for my application?

To select the correct RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Coupling, match the bore diameters to your shaft sizes and ensure the overall length fits your space. Consider torque requirements and misalignment tolerance. For the RSC16-5-4-A, verify that your shafts are 5/16 inch and 1/4 inch. Consult RULAND MANUFACTURING's technical data for load ratings.
