Product Description
DRZ Stainless Steel Bellows Coupling with Shrink Disc – Zero Backlash, Laser Welded, for CNC Machines
Factory direct | Full stainless steel construction | Laser welded | Zero backlash | Shrink disc connection | Designed for CNC machine tools
The Apexcoupling DRZ series is a stainless steel bellows coupling with integrated shrink disc (shrink disc / locking assembly) designed for precision power transmission in demanding applications. Featuring zero rotational clearance, it is ideal for applications requiring positive and negative rotation with absolute precision. The bellows and shaft hubs are joined by laser welding, ensuring superior strength and straightness. The shrink disc connection provides a secure, backlash-free shaft-to-hub attachment.
✅ Specifically designed for CNC machine tool drives – ensures high positioning accuracy and reliable performance.

FAQ
Q: What is a bellows coupling with shrink disc?
A: It is a flexible coupling that uses a thin-walled stainless steel bellows to transmit torque while compensating for misalignment. The shrink disc (shrink disc) provides a secure, backlash-free connection between the coupling hub and the shaft.
Q: What does “zero backlash” mean?
A: Zero backlash means there is no rotational clearance between the coupling and the shaft. This ensures precise torque transmission with no lost motion – critical for CNC machines, servo motors, and precision positioning.
Q: Why is laser welding used?
A: Laser welding provides superior strength, perfect straightness, and reliable zero backlash performance. It ensures the bellows and hubs are joined with high precision.
Q: What materials are used?
A: The DRZ series features full stainless steel construction – both the bellows and hubs are made of stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.
Q: What misalignment can the coupling compensate for?
A: The bellows structure compensates for radial, angular, and axial deviations.
Q: What is the bore tolerance?
A: Standard bore tolerance is H7 for precision shaft fit and high concentricity.
Q: Can I get a keyway?
A: Yes. Add “K” to the model number (e.g., DRZ-55×75-10k x 11k) to specify keyways on both bores.
Q: What is the shrink disc connection?
A: The shrink disc (shrink disc / locking assembly) provides a secure, backlash-free connection between the coupling hub and the shaft. It allows for easy installation and removal.
Q: What are the main applications?
A: CNC machine tools, machining centers, engraving machines, servo motors, stepper motors, metallurgical equipment, mining machinery, and more.
