|  | Rimtecs zero-backlash couplings provide
        servo-quality stiffness and low inertia for highly dynamic servo and vector drives 
        but without the misalignment problems that are common with traditional metal bellows
        couplings.
 This high-performance line
        incorporates a unique taper lock design, which self-centers the motor shaft when
        assembled, and self-loosens to easily release when disassembled. Compared to ordinary taper locks, this special
        clamping style is extremely cost effective in conjunction with Rimtecs high-end
        couplings  it achieves highly accurate manufacturing tolerances, dramatically
        reduces bearing wear, slashes downtime, and practically eliminates the need to inventory
        replacement drives.
 
          
            | Metal bellows couplings transmit torque from
            159.3 lb-in (18 Nm) to 44,250 lb-in (5000 Nm), on shaft sizes from .04 inches (1 mm) up to
            4 inches (100 mm). |  Benefits/features include:
