Slit Couplings

Thanks to their unique slit structure with varying angular positions, these couplings, also known as sliced couplings, effectively compensate for shaft misalignments while transmitting high torques in a compact design. They are backlash-free and highly rigid, ensuring excellent positioning accuracy in dynamic drive systems. The stainless-steel version is particularly well-suited for applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Options: Available in a wide range of hub configurations to meet diverse assembly requirements, with shaft diameters from 3 mm to 40 mm and torque capacities from 3 Nm to 240 Nm. Stainless steel variants are also available, providing corrosion resistance and hygienic performance for food and pharmaceutical environments.

Hub styles include collet clamp and split-hub designs, allowing for flexible mounting options and adaptability across various shaft and installation configurations.

Slit patterns include multiple angular configurations along the coupling body, enabling the flexibility needed to absorb axial, radial, and angular misalignment without sacrificing torsional rigidity.

These couplings are available across a range of shaft diameter and torque combinations to support different operational demands. Designed for high positioning accuracy in dynamic drives, slit couplings deliver backlash-free performance with high rigidity in a compact, single-piece body.

Additional features include a broad range of shaft diameters and torque capacities to fit specific application requirements, along with quick, tool-light installation for fast setup and reduced downtime.

Available in multiple series:

  • KBFK series slit couplings with collet clamps

  • KBFH series slit couplings with split hubs
