Applications

Ideal for high-precision servo applications and shaft-to-shaft connections where alignment is critical and flexibility is not required.

Installation Instructions

1. Align the coupling on the two shafts to be connected, ensuring no misalignment.
2. Tighten the Nypatch® screws in two stages, starting with the inside screws. Using a 5.0 mm torque wrench, tighten the inside screws to 8 Nm, which is half the recommended seating torque. Repeat for the outside screws.
3. Tighten all screws to the full recommended seating torque of 16 Nm, following the same pattern, starting with the inside screws first.
