Product Description

The RULAND MANUFACTURING RSS8-4-2-A is a short set screw slit coupling with a 1/4 in bore diameter 1 and a 1/8 in bore diameter 2, featuring an overall length of 21/32 in. This inch-sized coupling is designed for precise shaft alignment and torque transmission in industrial applications.

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 light-duty industrial machinery where zero backlash and high torsional stiffness are required.

What are the specifications of the RULAND MANUFACTURING RSS8-4-2-A slit coupling?

The RULAND MANUFACTURING RSS8-4-2-A is a short set screw slit coupling with a 1/4 in bore diameter 1 and a 1/8 in bore diameter 2. Its overall length is 21/32 in. This inch-series coupling is designed for precise shaft connections in compact assemblies.

Where to buy RULAND MANUFACTURING slit couplings worldwide?

3G Electric supplies RULAND MANUFACTURING slit couplings worldwide. As a global industrial distributor, we handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your facility. Contact us for availability and lead time on the RSS8-4-2-A or other RULAND MANUFACTURING motion-control components.

How to select the correct RULAND MANUFACTURING slit coupling for an application?

Select a RULAND MANUFACTURING slit coupling by matching bore diameters to your shaft sizes and verifying overall length fits your space. Consider torque requirements and misalignment tolerance. For the RSS8-4-2-A, ensure one shaft is 1/4 in and the other is 1/8 in. Consult 3G Electric for application guidance.
