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 across industrial automation, packaging, and robotics applications.
What are the specifications of the Ruland RSC8-4-2-A slit coupling?
The Ruland RSC8-4-2-A is a short clamp-on slit coupling with a 1/4 in bore diameter 1 and a 1/8 in bore diameter 2. Its overall length is 21/32 in. This inch-series coupling is designed for zero-backlash torque transmission in light-duty servo and encoder applications.
