Climax Metal Products 2MISCC-08-08SKW Rigid Coupling Keyway

Product Description

The CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS 2MISCC-08-08SKW is a two-piece rigid shaft coupling with a keyway, designed to create a solid, non-flexing connection between rotating shafts in mechanical drive systems. The coupling features an 8mm bore, a 24mm outside diameter, and a body length of 35mm. The 2mm wide by 1.2mm deep keyway slot provides positive torque transmission, preventing rotational slippage under load. Constructed from stainless steel, this coupling resists corrosion in demanding environments. The two-piece clamp-style design allows installation and removal without disassembling adjacent components, making it a practical choice for maintenance-focused applications.

This coupling is suited for use in light industrial, HVAC, pool equipment, and general mechanical drive applications where shafts must be rigidly joined with keyway-secured torque transfer. The clamp-style two-piece body simplifies field installation and shaft alignment tasks. Typical applications include pump drives, fan assemblies, motor-to-shaft connections, and similar rotating equipment where zero angular or parallel misalignment tolerance is acceptable and a keyed connection is required.

Key Features

• Two-piece clamp design allows installation and removal without shaft disassembly
• Keyway slot (2mm wide x 1.2mm deep) provides positive torque transmission with a mating key
• 8mm bore fits standard metric shaft diameters
• 24mm outside diameter and 35mm body length in a compact rigid form factor
• Stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance in wet or chemical-exposure environments
• Rigid coupling design maintains precise shaft-to-shaft alignment with no flex

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade rigid coupling for mechanical drive assemblies requiring an 8mm bore metric shaft connection with a keyway. Verify bore diameter, outside diameter, body length, and keyway dimensions against the existing installation before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or technician familiar with rotating shaft assemblies. De-energize and lock out all power to the drive system before removing or installing any coupling. Ensure both shafts are clean, free of burrs, and properly aligned before tightening the clamp bolts, as this is a rigid coupling with no tolerance for shaft misalignment. Consult applicable machinery safety standards and the equipment manufacturer guidelines for proper fastener torque procedures.
