We supply versatile sleeve for S-Flex coupling in 3 models: one-piece strong, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split design and style supplies solutions for applications with exceptional specifications in which little shaft separations inhibit the installation of the one-piece reliable sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter on the sleeve engage with teeth from the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are needed to connect the flanges with the flexible sleeve which securely lock together underneath torque for smooth transmission of electrical power
Torque is transmitted as a result of shear loading on the sleeve
All three sleeve elements are highly elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to protect connected equipment from damaging shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Types
These sleeves characteristic a one-piece style molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Kinds, the one-piece design is split to provide for ease of installation and removal.
E, N Sleeve Kinds
These sleeves feature a two-piece style with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece design and style is ideal for applications exactly where there is difficulty in separating the shafts from the driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves characteristic both a one-piece solid (H) and two-piece split
(HS) layout and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit electrical power for high torque applications. Because from the style and design and the properties of the Hytrel molded sleeve, the H and HS 
sleeves should not be used as direct replacements for EPDM or Neoprene sleeves, and can only be used with S, TF, or SC flanges.
Sleeve Products
EPDM ?§C Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex couplings are supplied with EPDM versatile sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
NEOPRENE ?§C Neoprene gives very good performance characteristics for most applications and offers a very good resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is black with a green dot.
HYTREL ?§C Hytrel is a polyester elastomer designed for high torque and high temperature applications and offers excellent resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is orange.
