Zero-Max

Zero-backlash Flexible Shaft Couplings

Zero-backlash Flexible Shaft Couplings

Zero-backlash Flexible Shaft Couplings handle large shaft misalignments without causing high radial stress and perform better than other flexible or rigid alternatives in high-performance applications. Decades of experience and expertise went into designing each product line.

  • Zero-Backlash operation
  • Exceptional performance and precision
  • Perfect for high-speed applications
  • High torsional stiffness
  • Low reaction loads
  • No lubrication required
  • Maintenance-free operation
  • Long/Consistent operational life

    Overhung Load Adaptors (OHLA)

    Overhung Load Adaptors (OHLA)

    Overhung Load Adaptors (OHLA) help prevent breakdowns and extend the lifespan of mobile hydraulic systems.  OHLAs prevent costly damage and downtime by isolating external loads from hydraulic motors, pumps and seal out grease and grime to prevent hydraulic fluid contamination. Zero-Max OHLAs are for use on belt/chain drives, fan drives, recycling equipment, mixer units, industrial conveyor drives, and other hydraulic motor applications in the toughest environments.

    • Provides support for radial and axial loads resulting in extended life of hydraulic motors and pumps
    • Seals out dirt, grime, and other contaminants
    • Prevents contamination of hydraulic fluid in harsh environments
    • Provides solid, permanent mounting surface
    • Permits the removal of hydraulic motors for servicing without disturbing driven gears, pulleys, or sprockets

        Keyless shaft bushings

        Keyless shaft bushings

        Keyless shaft bushings provide secure connections between shaft and hub while reducing stress or wear to mounted components. Using surface pressure to maintain their position,  eliminating need for keyways, tapers, and tapped holes, which can cause component stress and wear due to fretting, corrosion, and backlash. Keyless bushing does not rely on the key to transmit torque, but utilizes the entire circumference of the shaft for efficient performance with no backlash. Surface pressure distributed evenly over the full length of the connection, reducing micro-movements which can cause fretting.

        • Zero Backlash
        • Reduced Size Requirements for Mounted Components
        • Good Corrosion Resistance (Stainless Models Available)
        • Superior Concentricity
        • Low Profile Dimensions (Minimized Hub Diameter)
        • No Keyway Required
        • Reduced Machining Costs
        • Customization Options
