Selection Guide

Start with shaft sizes, attachment method and operating conditions.

Start with these six details

  1. Shaft sizes and tolerances

    Provide both shaft diameters, units and tolerance requirements, including keyways or special shaft-end features.

  2. Attachment method

    Confirm clamp or set-screw attachment and the space available for assembly, removal and tools.

  3. Torque and speed

    Specify continuous and peak torque, maximum speed, start-stop frequency and load characteristics.

  4. Installation envelope

    Check available diameter, overall length, shaft-end spacing and surrounding clearance.

  5. Misalignment and axial movement

    Describe angular and parallel misalignment and axial movement, and verify the combined operating condition.

  6. Environment and purchasing needs

    Provide temperature, corrosive exposure, material requirements, quantity and requested delivery date.

Already have a model?

Send the full part number or nameplate information. Appearance alone is not sufficient for selection; confirm final dimensions and performance against model-specific manufacturer documentation.
