Product Description

The RULAND MANUFACTURING Slit Coupling is a short clamp-on slit coupling with a 12 mm bore diameter 1 and a 5/16 in bore diameter 2, featuring a 1 1/64 in overall length (MPN RSC16-12MM-5/16"-A). This component is designed for motion control applications requiring precise shaft alignment and torque transmission.

Supplied to the Philippines — compatible with 60 Hz installations. DHL Express delivery to Manila, Quezon City, Cebu, customs and duties handled door-to-door.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Ruland Manufacturing slit coupling used for?

A Ruland Manufacturing slit coupling connects two shafts in motion-control systems, compensating for minor misalignment while transmitting torque. It is commonly used in encoders, stepper motors, and precision positioning equipment where zero backlash and high torsional stiffness are required.

What are the specifications of the Ruland RSC16-12MM-5/16"-A slit coupling?

The Ruland RSC16-12MM-5/16"-A is a short clamp-on slit coupling with a 12 mm bore diameter 1 and a 5/16 in bore diameter 2. Its overall length is 1 1/64 in. This model is designed for applications needing a compact, zero-backlash connection between metric and inch shafts.

Where to buy Ruland Manufacturing couplings worldwide?

3G Electric supplies Ruland Manufacturing couplings worldwide. As a global industrial distributor, we handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your site. Contact us for availability and lead time on the RSC16-12MM-5/16"-A or other Ruland slit couplings.

How to select the correct Ruland slit coupling for an application?

To select a Ruland slit coupling, match bore diameters to your shaft sizes and confirm overall length fits your space. Consider torque requirements and misalignment tolerance. For the RSC16-12MM-5/16"-A, ensure one shaft is 12 mm and the other is 5/16 in. Consult Ruland's technical data for load ratings.

Used in

Common applications for RULAND MANUFACTURING

Automated packaging machinery — Ruland beam couplings (e.g., PSR20-8-5-A) for connecting servo motors to conveyor drive shafts.

CNC machine tools — Ruland rigid couplings (e.g., CLX-4-4-A) for precise alignment of ball screw assemblies.

Robotic arm joints — Ruland Oldham coupling hubs (e.g., OSC16-6-A) for accommodating axial motion in end-effector drives.

Pump and compressor systems — Ruland stainless steel shaft collars (e.g., CL-3-ST) for securing impeller shafts.

Printing press rollers — Ruland clamp-on beam couplings (e.g., PCR18-8-8-A) for synchronizing roller rotation with minimal backlash.

Material handling conveyors — Ruland set screw couplings (e.g., PSMR29-7-7-A) for linking gearboxes to drive rollers.
