New Hyde Park, NY -- A new series of magnetic disk couplings
from Sterling Instrument (ISO 9001:2000+AS9100B Registered
Manufacturer) features no friction or wearing parts, uses no
electricity and no magnetic particles to leak. These units, identified
as the S50DCM... (inch) and S50DCMM... (metric) Series are stocked in 8
different bore sizes ranging from .1875" to 1.000" (5 mm to19 mm).The
couplings consist of two opposing disk halves with powerful rare earth
magnets. The torque applied to one disk is transferred through an air
gap to the other disk. Because of its simple flat design, one can have
angular misalignment of up to 3o or parallel misalignment of up to 1/4" and still transmit nearly full rotational torque.

These 416 Stainless steel couplings incorporate an NdFeB, nickel
plated magnet. The hub sections are offered singularly and are offered
with or without a keyway and are fastened to shafts with an included
set screw. The coupling O.D. ranges from 1.72"to 2.86" (43.7 mm to 73
mm).
Other features include being incredibly accurate, repeatable torque
control, and easy to adjust, easy to apply, smooth with no friction
since there is no physical contact between driving and driven parts.
