Clearance and interference coupling fits: Tips on when to use and how to determine tolerances

  • July 2009
  • Number of views: 8109
  • Article rating: 4.0
Article

Couplings for connecting shafts can be placed in two categories: keyed and keyless. Similarly, the fits of couplings to shafts can be categorized as clearance or interference. A keyless coupling arrangement will always have an interference fit, while a keyed arrangement may have either a clearance or an interference fit. This article will focus on determining when to use a clearance or an interference fit, and how to obtain the tolerances for the resulting fit.

Pitfalls of applying generally accepted coupling manufacturers' alignment tolerances

  • February 2005
  • Number of views: 6190
  • Article rating: No rating
Article

Shaft couplings are devices that connect two rotating shafts together. They efficiently transfer motion and power from the drive unit to the driven unit without adversely impacting either piece of rotating equipment. Under ideal conditions, both shafts should function as a continuous unit. The design of a flexible coupling is to accommodate small amounts of shaft misalignment. Coupling manufacturers have designed their couplings to withstand the forces resulting from excessive shaft misalignment. Unfortunately, shaft alignment tolerances have sometimes been governed by the coupling manufacturers' design specifications.
