NM Series

NM82 Flexible Coupling

NM82 is the NM82 model in the EVER POWER NM range, with 28 N.m nominal torque, 32 mm maximum bore and a published speed limit of 3000 rpm. It is a starting point for compact drives and small pump/motor connections; final selection still depends on actual duty and shaft data.

NM82 technical specifications

Use these published values to screen the size. Bore machining, keyway, hub material, elastomer specification and transient duty are quotation items rather than assumptions.

D, D1, d max, L, S and radial values are in millimetres. Angular displacement is shown in degrees. Table scrolls horizontally on narrow screens.

What the dimensions mean

Check the shaft interface before ordering.

Most wrong-coupling orders begin with an incomplete shaft description. Measure both sides independently and do not assume identical bores.

D / D1Published overall and hub-related diameters for the NM82 envelope.
d maxMaximum published bore diameter. The actual finished bore and keyway need confirmation.
L / SPublished axial dimensions. Confirm available installation space and assembly gap.

Where NM82 can fit

This size can be evaluated for pump, compressor, blower, mixer, conveyor and general machinery connections when the required continuous torque stays within the published nominal rating and the shaft bores fit the available hub capacity. Real duty matters: starts per hour, reversing, shock, ambient conditions and the driven machine can all change the appropriate size.

Use the coupling to accommodate the documented alignment allowance, not as a substitute for poor machine alignment. If the shafts cannot be brought within the published radial and angular values, correct the machine setup before commissioning.

What to send for a useful quote

Give us the driving and driven shaft diameters, keyway dimensions, running speed, design torque or motor power, quantity and destination. If the application sees frequent starts, reversing or shock, mention that as well. For replacements, a photo of the old hubs and elastomer can help identify the interface, but dimensional confirmation still takes priority.

Elastomer & hub requests

Specify what the duty actually needs.

The baseline product information identifies an NBR elastomer and lubrication-free operation. Alternative elastomer hardness or hub materials should be treated as RFQ options and confirmed against the application rather than inferred from color.

NBR baseline

Use the documented NBR ring as the baseline request where oil resistance and damping are relevant.

Bore & keyway

State both shaft diameters and keyways separately. Mixed bores can be quoted when the hub section permits them.

Hub material

Cast iron, ductile iron or aluminium requests require design and application review; do not assume one grade from the model number.

Duty review

Provide speed, torque/power, starts, shock and operating environment so the quotation reflects the actual drive.

Compare adjacent NM sizes before freezing the bore.

A larger hub may solve a bore constraint, but moving up a size also changes the coupling envelope. Compare torque, bore capacity, D, L and speed together.

Questions buyers ask about NM82

Is the published torque a maximum or a nominal rating?
The table uses nominal torque. Do not treat it as a transient maximum or overload rating; peak-duty acceptance needs confirmation for the actual application.
Can the two hubs use different bores?
Yes, the RFQ can state separate driving and driven shaft diameters. Finished bore and keyway details are confirmed in the manufacturing quotation.
Can I select the elastomer by color?
No. Color is not proof of chemistry or hardness. Request the required material or duty and have it confirmed in the quotation.
