Overview
The Ruland MCLX-10-10-SS is a one-piece rigid shaft coupling engineered for precision power transmission in industrial automation, servo systems, and motion control applications. With 10mm x 10mm bores, keyways, 29mm OD, and 45mm length, this coupling provides a compact, rigid connection between collinear shafts requiring minimal runout and vibration.
Key Features
- Precision honed bores ensure collinearity and do not introduce misalignment or vibration, making it suitable for high precision servo applications
- Proprietary Nypatch® anti-vibration coating on hardware allows for even screw seating, repeated screw installations, prevents galling, and maintains high holding power
- Forged screws test beyond DIN 912 12.9 standards to ensure maximum holding power
- Tightly controlled bore tolerance of +.050mm/+.012mm is maintained
- Made from 303 stainless steel with like-material hardware for consistent corrosion resistance, machined from solid bar stock sourced exclusively from North American mills, and RoHS2 and REACH compliant
- Manufactured in Marlborough, MA factory under strict controls using proprietary processes
Technical Specifications

Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
The MCLX-10-10-SS is a direct replacement for other one-piece 10mm x 10mm rigid couplings from Ruland and OEM equivalents requiring identical bore and clamp-style configuration. For alternative styles from Ruland, compare MCLX-10-10-F (black oxide steel), MCLC-10-10-SS (with 3mm x 3mm keyway), MSCX-10-10-SS (set screw style), or MSPX-10-10-SS (two-piece clamp). Verify bore size, style, and material compatibility with your system integrator before ordering.
Works With
- Industrial automation platforms requiring rigid torque coupling
- Servo drive systems across major manufacturers (Rockwell Automation, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Omron, ABB)
- Precision machinery and CNC equipment
- ISO standard 10mm shaft applications
