Piston rod flexible couplings are a specific type of flexible coupling used to connect the piston rod of a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder to another mechanical component, such as a pump, motor, or valve. They are designed to compensate for any misalignment between the piston rod and the other component while transmitting torque and axial loads.
Piston rod flexible couplings come in different types, such as jaw couplings, bellows couplings, and elastomeric couplings, depending on the specific application and environmental conditions. They are typically made of high-strength materials, such as steel or aluminium, to withstand the stress and pressure of the hydraulic or pneumatic system.
Proper installation and maintenance of piston rod flexible couplings are important to ensure safe and reliable operation of the hydraulic or pneumatic system. The coupling should be properly aligned and tightened to the manufacturer’s recommended torque specifications to prevent any misalignment or separation of the connected components. Regular inspection and maintenance can help detect any damage or wear to the coupling and other components of the system.
