Product Description

This RULAND MANUFACTURING Motion Control Coupling is a clamp-on bellows shaft coupling for round shafts, with a 5/16 in bore diameter on both ends (same bore dimensions). It is constructed of stainless steel and aluminum, and is designed for inch-sized shafts. The coupling is keyless (no keyway) and is identified by manufacturer part number BC16-5-5-A.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a RULAND MANUFACTURING BC16-5-5-A bellows coupling used for?

This clamp-on bellows shaft coupling connects two 5/16 in round shafts in motion control applications. It compensates for misalignment while transmitting torque, making it ideal for precision positioning systems, encoders, and servo drives where zero backlash is required.

What are the specifications of the RULAND MANUFACTURING BC16-5-5-A coupling?

The BC16-5-5-A has a 5/16 in bore diameter on both ends (same bore dimensions), is constructed of stainless steel and aluminum, and is designed for inch-sized shafts. It is keyless (no keyway) and manufactured by RULAND MANUFACTURING under part number BC16-5-5-A.

Where to buy a RULAND MANUFACTURING BC16-5-5-A coupling worldwide?

3G Electric supplies the RULAND MANUFACTURING BC16-5-5-A motion control coupling to customers worldwide. We handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your facility, ensuring you receive genuine industrial components without supply chain complications.

How to install a RULAND MANUFACTURING clamp-on bellows coupling?

Clean both shaft ends and the coupling bores. Loosen the clamp screws, slide the coupling onto the shafts, align the components, then tighten the screws evenly to the manufacturer's recommended torque. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the bellows section.
