PIN coupling is a flexible shaft coupling designed to transmit torque while accommodating misalignment between connected shafts. As industry leaders in mechanical power transmission solutions, we provide premium quality PIN couplings with superior durability and performance.
Model | Bore Range (mm) | Torque Capacity (Nm) | Max Speed (rpm) | Weight (kg) |
---|---|---|---|---|
PC-100 | 10-30 | 120 | 6000 | 0.8 |
PC-200 | 25-50 | 350 | 5000 | 1.5 |
PC-300 | 40-80 | 800 | 4000 | 3.2 |
PC-400 | 60-120 | 1500 | 3000 | 6.5 |
Q: What types of misalignment can PIN coupling accommodate?
A: PIN coupling can effectively compensate for three types of misalignment: angular misalignment (up to 3 degrees), parallel misalignment (up to 0.5mm), and axial displacement (up to ±2mm). The flexible elements absorb these misalignments while maintaining efficient power transmission.
Q: How often should PIN couplings be inspected?
A: We recommend visual inspection every 3-6 months depending on operating conditions. In normal service environments, a thorough inspection should be conducted annually. Look for signs of wear on pins, elastomers, and bushings, as well as any corrosion or deformation of metal components.
Q: Can PIN couplings be used in high-temperature applications?
A: Standard PIN couplings are rated for continuous operation at temperatures up to 80°C (176°F). For higher temperature applications up to 120°C (248°F), we offer special high-temperature elastomer options. Beyond this range, alternative coupling types may be more suitable.

Q: What factors affect the service life of a PIN coupling?
A: The primary factors affecting service life include: operating torque (should not exceed rated capacity), misalignment (staying within specified limits), rotational speed (remaining below maximum rating), environmental conditions (avoiding excessive moisture, chemicals, or abrasives), and proper installation following manufacturer guidelines.
