Military and Aerospace Spline Couplings Machined from DuPont™ Vespel® Parts & Shapes
A proven technology for reducing spline wear and increasing service life.
White Paper highlights the benefits of specifying spline couplings made from DuPont™ Vespel® for use in critical-service military and aerospace spline connections.
- Reduced wear on metal splines
- Extended service life for spline connections
- Ductile behavior of spline couplings allows for some degree of shaft misalignment
- Couplings reduce the stresses on bearings when shafts are misaligned
- Spline couplings can eliminate the need for external lubrication in certain applications
