Floating Shaft/Dimensions (mm)
A standard floating shaft assembly consists of two standard single engagement couplings, two gap discs and a connecting shaft.
A floating shaft can eliminate the need for additional bearing supports along spanning shafts, because shaft is supported at ends by connected equipment through the single engagement couplings.
Flex Hubs on Floating Shaft (RFFR)
Assembly of the flex hubs on the floating shaft allows for easier replacement in case of wear and allows the rigid hubs with their increased bore capacity to be used on the connected equipment shafts. This frequently means a smaller coupling size can be used.
