Note: (i) Size selection is based on a service factor of 2.0. (ii) All couplings have capacity to accept 200% FLT, typically at start up. (iii) In some instances, the coupling selection may be limited by shaft diameter, and the use of taper bushes may necessitate the selection of the next size up. (iv) For powers
outside the range shown, please refer to SKF PTP for assistance. (v) The above tables are for ELASTOMERIC JAW / SPIDER type couplings. Higher capacity couplings, such as Gear, Grid and Disc, are also available from SKF PTP. Please refer to SKF for details.
