Technical Specifications
Torque Mt
The transmissible torque depends on
the coefficient of friction between shaft
and hub, the fit clearance and the shaft
diameter.
Axial load Pax
Surface quality
The maximum transmissible axial load can
be determined on the basis of the following
equation:
The surface roughness (Rt) of shaft and
hub should be below 16 m (turning on a
lathe is sufficient).
Coefficient of friction
Pax ,max
The coefficient of friction of dry and grease
free surface (steel/steel) ranges from 0.15
to 0.33.
The chart is based on a coefficient of
friction (w) of 0,15!
The coefficient of friction will increase
to approximately 0.2 provided that the
surfaces are carefully degreased and
additionally cleansed by using lime milk.
The transmissible torque can thus be
increased accordingly.
Fit clearance
The torque calculations is based on the
maximum clearance (up to 150 mm shaft
diameter H7/h6, from 160 mm H7/g6) and
the surface roughness.
If the actual fit between shaft and hub
is tighter, then the transmissible torque
consequently increases and vice versa.
Shaft diameter
The shaft diameter range for each shrink
disc is specified in the chart. The transmissible torque can be interpolated with sufficient accuracy for shaft diameters which
lie between two sizes given in the chart.
(Larger shaft diameters can be chosen if
hub material permits. The transmissible
torque can be extrapolated.)

Mt is the torque reduced by axial load Pax.
Hub material
As hub material steel, cast steel or nodular
cast iron with a yield strength of at least
360 N/mm can be used.
On assemblies which have to transmit also
bending moments (rotating bending) the
hub should be of heat-treatable steel like
42CrMo4 or higher quality cast steel or
nodular cast iron.
Conical surfaces are greased with a MoS2lubricant (Combination of bonding coating
and paste). The following lubricants (coefficient of friction appr. 0.04) are examples
of commercially available lubricants:

The bolts are lubricated with commercially
available bolt lubricants (=0,1).
Tightening bolts
All units are equipped with commercial
available hexagonal bolts DIN EN ISO
4014/4017, quality 10.9 or 12.9.
Grey cast iron can be used for assemblies
where negligible bending moments occur.
Hub calculation
pa
pw
When tensioning the shrink disc
multidirectional stresses occur in the
hub. Tangential and radial stress can be
calculated by using the following equation
for the thick-walled pipes (axial stress can
be neglected).
Maximum stress occurs on the inner
diameter.
