Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Ruland Manufacturing slit coupling used for?

A Ruland Manufacturing slit coupling connects two shafts in motion-control systems, compensating for minor misalignment while transmitting torque. It is commonly used in encoders, stepper motors, and precision positioning equipment where zero backlash and low inertia are critical.

What are the specifications of the Ruland RLS8-1/4"-6MM-A slit coupling?

The Ruland RLS8-1/4"-6MM-A is a long set screw slit coupling with a 1/4 in bore diameter on one side and a 6 mm bore diameter on the other. Its overall length is 25/32 in, and the body shape is round. It is made by Ruland Manufacturing.

Where to buy a Ruland Manufacturing slit coupling worldwide?

3G Electric supplies and delivers Ruland Manufacturing slit couplings worldwide. As a global industrial solutions provider, we handle full logistics and customs clearance to ensure your order reaches any international destination. Contact us for availability and lead time.

How to select the correct Ruland slit coupling for my application?

To select the correct Ruland slit coupling, match the bore diameters to your shaft sizes and confirm the overall length fits your space. Consider torque requirements and misalignment tolerance. For the RLS8-1/4"-6MM-A, ensure one shaft is 1/4 in and the other is 6 mm.
