New Pressure Locking Hub Connectors from SI Designed for Fast & Accurate Hub Repositioning

May 23, 2012

A new series of pressure locking hub connectors from Sterling Instrument (ISO 9001+AS9100 Registered Manufacturer) are designed for fast and accurate repositioning of the hub. Radial screw positioning saves space along the shaft. Uniform surface pressure against the shaft and hub prevents damage to the surfaces and enables the use of small diameter hubs. These hardened steel connectors handle a temperature range of -22°F to +180°F. Hub bore sizes range from .748" to 1.811" and from 18 mm to 54 mm.

Identified as the S21BPY-... Inch Series and the S21BPYM... Metric Series they feature easy, space saving use with no wear or stress on the components they are mounted to. Here's how they work. When the pressure screw is tightened the double-walled sleeve and hub expands uniformly against shaft and hub and creates a rigid joint. Dismantling is done by loosening the screw which returns the connector to its original dimensions. It can then easily be dismantled.
