It features a 1-3\/8 inch inside diameter bore, a 2-1\/2 inch outside diameter, and an overall length of 4-1\/2 inches. Constructed from stainless steel, it resists corrosion in wet or chemically active environments. Set screw fastening locks the coupling directly to each shaft without requiring a keyway, keeping installation straightforward. This coupling is well-suited for mechanical drive applications across HVAC, pump, and general industrial equipment service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRigid couplings of this type are installed where precise shaft alignment is maintained and no flexibility or misalignment compensation is needed. The RC-137-S is appropriate for use on rotating equipment including fan shafts, pump drives, and motor-to-shaft connections in both commercial and industrial settings. Because it transmits torque without any flex element, shaft alignment must be verified before installation. Installers in HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical service trades will encounter this coupling on equipment requiring direct shaft-to-shaft power transmission.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in demanding or wet service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet screw design secures coupling directly to shafts without a keyway requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-3\/8 inch inside diameter accommodates common mid-range shaft sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-1\/2 inch outside diameter with 4-1\/2 inch length provides substantial contact area for secure shaft engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRigid one-piece design transmits full torque without flex or backlash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit rigid shaft coupling for rotating equipment with a 1-3\/8 inch shaft diameter in HVAC, pump, and general mechanical drive applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified mechanical or HVAC technician. Disconnect and lock out all power to the drive system before handling any rotating shaft components. Shaft alignment must be confirmed to be within acceptable tolerance before tightening set screws, as rigid couplings do not compensate for angular or parallel misalignment. Follow applicable mechanical and electrical codes for the equipment type being serviced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Set Screw Rigid Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.45 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: RC-137-S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLIMAX METAL PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971127902514,"sku":"RC-137-S","price":129.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dfeb753bbf01529bdd356757ac6e4aff.jpg?v=1789953352","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/climax-metal-products-rc-137-s-rigid-coupling-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
