Omega ® Elastomeric CouplingsOEM Performance and CoverageThe unique split-in-half flex element and reversible hubssignificantly reduce total costs by reducing inventory andassembly time.Rexnord Omega couplings are non-lubricated, material-flexingcouplings utilizing a specially formulated polyurethane materialengineered for maximum durabilty, strength and fatigueresistance.The Rex Omega HSU coupling (green) is specifically designedfor hot and humid conditions.Rexnord is the leading coupling provider in the industry with afull-line of available solutions supported by trained customerservice and application engineering professionals focused onlyon our coupling product line. For more information, contactyour local Rexnord account executive.Features and Benefits• Split-in-half flex elementdesign for simplifiedassembly and disassembly• Our selection softwaremakes choosing theright coupling a snapTorsionally SoftFlex ElementRadial BoltingSplit-in-Half Design• Interchangeable hubs allowfor reduced inventory• High misalignment capacityaccommodates unavoidablemisalignment with lowreactionary forces• Torsionally soft flexelement cushions shockloads and vibrationextending equipment life• Polyurethane flex elementdoes not require lubrication• Rexnord field specialists arelocally based experts availableto support key end-users• The Rexnord OmegaHSU coupling (green) isspecifically designed for hotand humid environments.In addition, the HSU materialperforms well in causticand acidic environments.Consult Rexnord engineeringfor your application.Polyurethane-to-Metal BondInterchangeable Hubs• Polyurethane-to-metalbond eliminates assemblyand slippage problemsassociated with mechanicallyclamped designsTable Of ContentsDESCRIPTIONPAGEInstallation and Misalignment Ratings 3Standard Close Coupled Design 4 – 5Spacer Design 6 – 7Spacing Options and Extended Spacer Design 8 – 9Mill Motor Design 10Special Designs 11Selection 12–14Bore Specifications and Finished Stock Bore Hubs 15Rexnord Omega couplings operate ineither horizontal or vertical applicationswithout any additional components.Ease of installation, ease ofmaintenance, and visual inspectionmake these couplings a must formany applications such as this mashcooker in a brewery.Never operatecoupling without an OSHA approved guard.Ordering 162
InstallationMount one hub to shaft, leave otherhub loose for adjustment of spacing.Place half of the Rexnord ® Omega ®element around hubs and secure withself-locking capscrews. Omegaelement will space the other hub.Now secure the other hub.Mount other half of the Omegaelement. Tighten all capscrews torecommended torques below andyou’re done! Refer to the installationinstruction for further details.Severe static testing (5 × rating)shows element flexibility, ruggeddesign and positive adhesivebond to the metal shoes.Angular4°3°2°1°0°Size 2-10Omega ® CouplingAllowable MisalignmentSize 20-50OMEGAHUBSize 60-80Tested ToughRigorous testing demonstrates thatthe Rexnord Omega coupling protectsconnected equipment from the damagingeffects of misalignment, vibration andgross overload. Where other couplingdesigns might allow equipmentdamage, the super flexible element ofRexnord Omega couplings minimizesthe reactionary forces on equipmentbearings under severe misalignmentconditions and reduces the effectsof excessive shock overloads.ParallelOMEGAHUBOMEGAHUBSize 100-140AngularOMEGAHUB1/32 1/16 3/32 1/8 3/16ParallelNote:Any combination of parallel and angular misalignment which falls under the trianglewill not cause a premature fatigue failure of the flexible element in normal use.Demonstrates coupling’s ability toaccept severe misalignment.- Important-Recommended Capscrew TourqueFor Proper InstallationCoupling Torque - DrySize In.
