Couplings & Shafts

Berg precision shafts are used in a wide range of mechanical assemblies and industries, and are available in many different materials, lengths, and diameters.

• Types: Ground, Ultra Ground, Ground & Case Hardened, Ground/Saw Cut, Plastic Rod
• Materials: Steel, Cold Rolled Steel, Stainless Steel, Delrin, Nylon
• Diameters: In inches from .0313 - 5/8 (10mm - 50mm)
• Lengths: From 1" - 36" (20 - 900 metric)

Spider Couplings are a class of coupling called Shock Absorbing Couplings - As a result of flexible plastic members connecting their hubs, these couplings dampen vibrations and shock loads and electrically insulate shafting.

• Sizes: 1/8" to 1/2", 3mm to 12 mm
• Torque Range: 42 in.-oz.-3520 in.-oz.
• Range of Max. Para. Misalign.: .031" to .078"
• Range of Max. Ang. Misalign.: 0°-1°

Beam Couplings are a class of coupling called Information Transmitting Couplings - These zero backlash, high torsional rigidity couplings are for precision positioning applications where constant velocity is required for accurate feedback control.

• Types: Six Beam Flexible , Three Beam Flexible, Single Beam, Flexible, Reli-A-Flex
• Torque Range: 5 in.-oz.-7,200 in.-oz.
• Range of Max. Para. Misalign.: .004" to .038"

Bellows Couplings are a class of coupling called Information Transmitting Couplings - These zero backlash, high torsional rigidity couplings are for precision positioning applications where constant velocity is required for accurate feedback control.

• Types: Clamp and Pin Hub
• Torque Range: 40 in.-oz.-175 in.-oz.
• Range of Max. Para. Misalign.: .012" to .027"
• Range of Max. Ang. Misalign.: 4°-7°

Absorbathane Couplings are a class of coupling called Shock Absorbing Couplings - As a result of flexible plastic members connecting their hubs, these couplings dampen vibrations and shock loads and electrically insulate shafting.

• Sizes : 3/16" to 5/8"
• Torque Range:48 in.-oz. - 640 in.-oz.
• Range of Max. Para. Misalign.: .094" to .125"
• Range of Max. Ang. Misalign.: 10°-15°

Oldham Couplings are a class of coupling called Misalignment Couplings - The sliding center elements of these couplings compensate for lateral and angular misalignment caused by tolerance buildup or as a result of mounting.

• Range of Max. Para. Misalign.: .030" to .200"
• Range of Max. Ang. Misalign.: 1/2°-1 1/4°

Universal Joint Couplings are a class of coupling called High Misalignment Couplings - These couplings allow the designer to have shafts that are intentionally offset, laterally or angularly, by a large amount.

• Sizes : 1/8" to 1/2"
• Torque Range: 11 in.-oz. - 4,240 in.-oz.
• Range of Max. Para..Misalign.: 0 to .610"
• Range of Max. Ang. Misalign.: 30°- 90°

Sleeve Couplings are a class of coupling called Information Transmitting Couplings - These zero backlash, high torsional rigidity couplings are for precision positioning applications where constant velocity is required for accurate feedback control.
