Basic design is established from Type S couplings. Halves are interchangeable
so that spare motors with half coupling mounted can be quickly installed.
Usually one half (long hub flange) is taperbored and counterbored to fit
tapered shafts having shaft end nut. |
For use on hoists, winches cranes, elevators and other applications requiring
a brake. Since lubrication is not required, there is no danger of lubricant
contaminating brake surfaces. |
Positive overload protection for all direct connected industrial equipment.
Hard steel shear bushings cleanly cuts pin at predetermined overload point.
Such Ajax couplings are commonly used on pulverizes, mixers and conveyors. |

Horsepower and Torque Ratings: Ratings for various sizes of Ajax couplings are shown in horsepower at 100 RPM, and lb-in, of torque as well. Catalog load ratings of Ajax couplings represent the maximum even torques which can be transmitted continuously under ordinary operating conditions. Excessive misalignment, pulsating load, shock, vibration and other factors may, and often do, dictate the size coupling required for any specific application, regardless of theoretical torque load to be transmitted. Reasonable care should always be used in installing equipment and in securing good initial alignment of shafts.

Service Factors:Load ratings of various makes of couplings, as listed by manufacturers, are of little value on a comparative basis. Service or load factors, as recommended by one manufacturer, may be misleading if applied to couplings of different designs. The service factor to be used in any given instance is based on experience rather than theory. Specific conditions, as well as general classification of the drive, should be taken into consideration. A table of service factors setting forth a list of common applications cannot possibly be complete, and therefore would be of doubtful value. However, there are a few general applications where our experience has dictated the use of the following service factor. |
A service factor of 3 should be applied for those applications for compressors,
internal combustion engines, dredge pumps, pulverizes (non-reversing loads) and
other driving mechanisms subject to pulsating loads or heavy vibrations. Occasionally on some diesel engine drives there is a reverse torque, in such cases a service factor of 5 is not too much. On most applications, the engineer will find that when he has selected an Ajax coupling of sufficient shaft capacity, torque capacity will be ample. How to Select the Correct Size:
The above applies to the standard type of coupling. When ordering shear pin, mill motor, bolt-on, brake drum and other types involving individual specifications, complete information should be furnished in accordance with the requirements of the installation.
