*1: Correction of rated torque and max. torque due to load fluctuation is not required.

If ambient temperature exceeds 30°C, be sure to correct the rated torque and max. torque with temperature correction factor shown in the following table. The allowable operating temperature of MOT-C is -20°C to 80°C.

The shaft's slip torque may be smaller than the coupling's rated torque depending on the shaft bore. ⇒Slip torque

*2: These are values with max. bore diameter.

Slip torque

As in the table below, the clamping type MOT-C has different slip torque according to the bore diameter. Take care during selection.

These are test values based on the conditions of shaft dimensional allowance: g6, hardness: 58 HRC or higher, and screw tightening torque of the values described in MOT-C dimension tables. They are not guaranteed values.
Slip torque changes with usage conditions. Carry out tests under conditions similar to actual conditions in advance.

◎: Excellent

  • Oldham-type flexible couplings compliant with the Japan Machine Accessory Association organizational standards (TES 1403).
  • Slippage of hubs and a spacer allows large lateral and angular misalignment to be accepted.
  • The eccentric reaction generated by misalignment is small and the burden on the shaft is reduced.
  • The simple structure allows the unit to be easily assembled.

Transport conveyors / Mixers / Pumps

Precautions for Use

In case of mounting on D-cut shaft, be careful about the position of the D-cut surface of the shaft.⇒Mounting and Maintenance

The data above does not indicate stress cracking resistance properties. Take sufficient precautions during usage under external stress.
This is test data with a specimen used at room temperature (23°C). Chemical resistance changes with performance conditions. Always carry out tests under performance conditions similar to actual conditions in advance.


Physical property of the spacer (Polyacetal)

Test Method (ASTM) Unit Polyacetal
Dielectric Strength
(3mm)
D149 kV/mm 19.0
Surface Resistance Value D257 Ω 1016
Combustibility (UL) - - HB (0.75mm)

Indicates the spacer (polyacetal) material properties and does not guarantee product performance.
The combustibility is a value based on similar estimates from evaluation test results with reference to material information and UL standards.
As properties change with usage conditions, carry out tests under performance conditions similar to actual conditions in advance.


Spacer's Projection Structure

Spacer's projection structure allows large angular misalignment to be effortlessly accepted. It reduces burden on the shaft.

MOT/MOT-C_CFlexible Couplings - Oldham Type

For Oldham-type couplings with no spacer projection, the spacer and hubs interfere with each other near the outside diameter, so that the max. angular misalignment is small and bending moment arises on the shaft.
NBK's Oldham-type couplings allow angular misalignment to be easily accepted, as the projection serves as support. Bending moment does not arise. Therefore, the max. angular misalignment is large and the burden on the shaft is reduced.


Change in static torsional stiffness due to temperature

This is a value under the condition where the static torsional stiffness at 20°C is 100%.
Changes in the static torsion spring constant within the operating temperature are shown in the graph.
Before using the unit, be aware of the deterioration of responsiveness.
