GT10 GT Type Sleeve Coupling \u2013 140\u2013200mm Bore Rigid Muff Coupling for Zero-Backlash Shaft Connection<\/h1>\n

The GT10 GT type sleeve coupling<\/strong> \u2014 also known as a muff coupling \u2014 is the simplest and most direct form of rigid shaft coupling: a single cylindrical steel body with a through bore machined to receive two co-linear shaft ends, transmitting torque through keyway and fitted key engagement on each shaft side. At 380 mm outer diameter and 762 mm overall length, the GT10 provides a compact, maintenance-free rigid connection for 140\u2013200 mm shaft diameters, rated at 100000 N\u00b7m nominal torque at up to 1400 rpm maximum speed. The largest model in the GT series, the GT10 at 100,000 N\u00b7m covers 140\u2013200 mm shaft connections at the extreme end of sleeve coupling applications. Primary ball mill drives, large mine hoisting equipment, and major power station auxiliary drives define its application territory.<\/p>\n

The operating principle of the GT sleeve coupling is direct and reliable. Each shaft end is inserted into one half of the sleeve bore. A fitted key is placed in the matching keyways of both the shaft and the sleeve bore on each side \u2014 two keys total, typically positioned 180\u00b0 apart. When the coupling rotates, torque is transmitted from the driving shaft to the sleeve through key-keyway bearing contact, and from the sleeve to the driven shaft through the same mechanism on the opposite side. There are no flexible elements, no preloaded fasteners to maintain, and no wear surfaces subject to degradation under normal operating conditions. The result is a permanent, zero-backlash connection that requires essentially no maintenance throughout its service life, provided the connected shafts remain accurately aligned.<\/p>\n

The H7 bore tolerance and GB3852-1997 keyway standard ensure dimensional compatibility with standard motor and driven equipment shaft ends throughout the GT series. For special shaft configurations \u2014 non-standard diameters, tapered bores, or hydraulic fit bores \u2014 custom machining is available. The complete GT series, from GT1 through GT10, is listed on our product catalog page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Construction and Functional Features<\/h2>\n

\"GT10<\/p>\n

The GT10 body is machined from high-quality cast iron or cast steel \u2014 material selection dependent on model size and rated torque. The bore is machined to H7 tolerance to provide a controlled fit against the shaft end, complementing the key-keyway torque transmission with a stable radial contact between shaft and bore. The outer diameter is machined concentric with the bore to ensure rotational balance. Keyway slots are machined to GB3852-1997 standard dimensions for the specified bore size \u2014 verifying compatibility with standard motor shaft keyways without modification.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Zero Backlash<\/h3>\n

Rigid key-keyway torque transmission with no play or compliance \u2014 every angular increment on the driving shaft is replicated exactly on the driven shaft. Essential for phase-critical and encoder feedback applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Maintenance-Free Service Life<\/h3>\n

No wear elements, no elastomeric components to degrade, no bolts to retorque. Once correctly installed on aligned shafts, the GT sleeve coupling requires no maintenance throughout its service life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Compact One-Piece Design<\/h3>\n

Single cylindrical body \u2014 no bolted flanges, no split halves, no external fasteners. Lowest-profile rigid coupling available for co-linear shaft connections, minimising guard size and axial space requirements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Standard Keyway Compatibility<\/h3>\n

Bore and keyway dimensions to GB3852-1997 and H7 bore tolerance ensure direct compatibility with standard motor and driven equipment shaft ends throughout the industrial motor range.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
