Features

・New coupling that incorporates tolerance endplay function like a universal joint.
・Simple construction-composed of three elements : an outer hub, an inner hub(stainless steel), and multiple balls.
・No splashing even at high speed, thanks to the use of special high-viscosity grease.
・Compact, with high-strength, making it suitable for miniaturization of mechanisms.

Note (1):Rated torque is for angular misalignment ≦ 5°. At 10°, it will be approx. 2/3 the values.

Note (2):Maximum rotating speed is for angular misalignment ≦5°. At 10°, it will be approx. 1/2 the values.

Note (3):Allowable end play is for angular misalignment ≦5°. At 10°, it will be approx. 1/2 the values.

Note (4):The MBS 20-38 has 6 balls and the direction of the set screw is the same on the left and right.
