Product Description

This RULAND MANUFACTURING Bellows Coupling is a clamp-on bellows shaft coupling for round shafts, featuring a 3/8 in bore diameter 1 and an 8 mm bore diameter 2 with a 1 in coupling outside diameter. It is made of stainless steel, has an inch to metric bore configuration with same bore dimensions, and is identified by manufacturer part number BC16-3/8"-8MM-A.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a RULAND MANUFACTURING bellows coupling used for?

This RULAND MANUFACTURING bellows coupling connects two rotating shafts while compensating for misalignment. It is commonly used in motion control, robotics, and precision positioning systems where zero backlash and high torsional stiffness are required. The stainless steel construction suits clean or corrosive environments.

What are the specifications of the RULAND MANUFACTURING BC16-3/8"-8MM-A bellows coupling?

This clamp-on bellows coupling has a 3/8 in bore diameter 1 and an 8 mm bore diameter 2, with a 1 in coupling outside diameter. It is made of stainless steel, features an inch to metric bore configuration with same bore dimensions, and is identified by manufacturer part number BC16-3/8"-8MM-A.

How to install a clamp-on bellows shaft coupling?

Clean both shaft ends and the coupling bores. Loosen the clamp screws, slide the coupling onto the shafts, and align the equipment. Tighten the screws evenly to the manufacturer's recommended torque using a torque wrench. Verify alignment with a dial indicator before final tightening to avoid damaging the bellows.
