Manufactured from polyether urethane, this tire-type element absorbs shock, vibration, and minor misalignment between coupled shafts in rotating drive applications. It carries a torque capacity of 365 inch-pounds and is rated for speeds up to 7,500 RPM. The element handles up to 4 degrees of angular misalignment and up to 1\/16 inch of parallel misalignment, making it well suited for drives where shaft alignment is difficult to hold perfectly. Maintenance technicians and millwrights install this element as part of routine coupling maintenance or drive repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis element fits Dura-Flex WE series couplings sized to coupling size code 3, with a coupling overall length of 4.32 inches and an outside diameter of 4.24 inches. Distance between shafts is 1.32 inches. The TB-WE3 is appropriate for industrial drive applications including conveyor systems, pumps, fans, and general power transmission equipment where flexible coupling elements are replaced on a scheduled basis or following wear inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolyether urethane construction resists oil, abrasion, and environmental degradation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTire-type element design absorbs shock loads and dampens vibration in the drive train\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHandles up to 4 degrees of angular misalignment and 1\/16 inch of parallel misalignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e365 inch-pound torque capacity rated at up to 7,500 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-piece construction allows element replacement without moving connected equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the Dura-Flex WE series for consistent OEM-style fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with TB WOODS Dura-Flex WE series tire couplings at coupling size code 3.

De-energize and lock out the drive motor fully before removing any coupling components. Inspect shaft hubs for wear or damage before installing the new element. Follow ANSI and applicable local machinery safety standards for rotating equipment service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dura-Flex WE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTorque Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 365 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7,500 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHorsepower at 100 RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.58 hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Angular Misalignment\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax Parallel Misalignment\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Overall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistance Between Shafts\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tire\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polyether Urethane\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.91 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TB WOODS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TB-WE3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TB WOODS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383043785010,"sku":"TB-WE3","price":338.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/tb-woods-tb-we3-flexible-coupling-element-polyether-urethane","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
