GF48-L Driveflex Steel Pilot Bore Hub - Long Hub
GF48-L Driveflex Steel Pilot Bore Hub - Long Hub
The GF48-L Driveflex Steel Pilot Bore Hub is a high-quality steel hub designed for use with nylon sleeve gear couplings. This long hub variant features a 20mm pilot bore and is suitable for a maximum shaft size of 48mm, making it ideal for heavy-duty torque transmission applications.
With an extended hub length of 110mm, this hub provides a sturdy and secure connection for transmitting torque and compensating for misalignment in mechanical power transmission applications. The longer design offers enhanced stability and support for demanding industrial environments.
Key Features:
- Steel construction for durability and strength
- 20mm pilot bore for precision shaft connection
- Maximum bore size of 48mm for larger shaft applications
- Long hub length of 110mm for enhanced stability and support
- Compatible with nylon sleeve gear coupling systems
- Flexible shaft connection for positive torque transmission
- Compensates for axial, radial, and angular shaft misalignment
- Maintenance-free operation in nylon sleeve coupling assemblies
Ideal Applications:
This hub can be combined with a nylon sleeve and another identical hub to create a complete flexible coupling assembly for applications such as:
- Connecting large drive shafts
- Attaching motors to pumps or gearboxes in heavy-duty operations
- Compensating for misalignment in powertrains
- Isolating vibration and dampening noise in industrial machinery
- Industrial machinery and equipment requiring robust coupling solutions
- Hydraulic systems
- Power transmission systems
Important Note: To create a complete coupling assembly, you will need to purchase two hubs (one for each shaft) and one compatible nylon sleeve. This hub is one component of the complete Driveflex coupling system.
