SU-Flex shafts

 
 
Kraftübertragungswelle
 
 
SU-Flex flexible helix shafts are especially suitable for linear movements, such as window lifting and sliding sunroof mechanisms in cars, as well as many other industrial applications.

The flocked versions are designed for applications in which noise is of critical importance.

Explanations:
X Last number:
1 for operation in clockwise (right-hand) direction
2 for operation in counter-clockwise (left-hand) direction
1) Min. bend radius: The bend radius cannot be smaller than this value.
2) Torsional deflection: Torsional deflection angle over 1 m shaft with torque of 10 Ncm.
3) Breaking torque: At this load the shaft will break.
4) Max. torque: Values applicable for straight shaft at speeds of 20% of maximum rated speed.
