Ruland Aluminium Clamp Style Flexible Bellows Coupler 16 mm Bore x 16 mm Bore, 41.3 mm OD, 50.8 mm Length MBC41-16-16-A

Ruland MBC41-16-16-A is a high-performance flexible bellows coupler designed with anodized aluminium clamp-style hubs and stainless steel bellows. With bore sizes of 16 mm on both sides, an outer diameter of 41.3 mm, and a length of 50.8 mm, this coupler offers a lightweight and low inertia solution for high-speed applications.

Its zero-backlash design ensures high precision, making it suitable for servo motor, stepper motor, and encoder applications where accurate positioning is crucial. The bellows flex to accommodate axial, angular (up to 2°), and parallel (up to 0.25 mm) misalignments while maintaining torsional rigidity for smooth torque transmission.

Operating at speeds up to 10,000 RPM with a torque rating of 28 Nm, the coupling delivers reliable performance under demanding conditions. The stainless steel bellows combined with anodized aluminium hubs provide corrosion resistance and durability. Clamp-style hubs enable easy installation and secure locking on shafts with minimal slippage.

The product complies with DIN 912 12.9 hardware standards and environmental regulations including RoHS3 and REACH. Operating temperature range spans from a minimum of -40°C to a maximum of 93°C, making it suitable for various industrial environments.

Manufactured in the United States using high-quality materials sourced from North American mills, the MBC41-16-16-A coupling is produced under strict quality controls at Ruland’s facility in Marlborough, MA. This flexible bellows coupler is ideal for industrial, laboratory, robotics, manufacturing, and automation applications requiring precise mechanical power transmission with low vibration and backlash.

The coupler is made with anodized aluminium hubs ensuring lightweight and strength. Stainless steel bellows provide flexibility while maintaining torsional rigidity and zero backlash. Suitable for speeds up to 10,000 RPM with a torque rating of 28 Nm.
