Defines the performance characteristics of flexible couplings for shafts and specifies the dimensions and limits for bore and keyway sizes. It does not apply to flexible shafts or universal joints.

This British Standard specifies some of the requirements for flexible couplings for power transmission and includes definitions; performance under operating conditions; dimensions of bores; references to necessary components, such as bolts, screws, keys and guarding. An appendix on alignment is included. This standard does not apply to flexible shafts or universal joints.

NOTE The titles of the British Standards referred to in this standard are listed on page ii.
