TB Woods 9HS Sleeve

The TB Woods 9HS Sleeve is a professional-grade, two-piece split Hytrel coupling insert designed for high-torque applications within the Sure-Flex Plus ecosystem. Engineered for size 9 couplers, this Hytrel element provides up to four times the torque capacity of standard EPDM or Neoprene sleeves, making it the preferred choice for heavy-duty industrial systems including pumps, compressors, and conveyors. The split design, paired with a stainless steel retaining ring, allows for simplified installation and replacement without the requirement to move the coupling flanges or the connected equipment, significantly reducing downtime during maintenance cycles.

This TB Woods 9HS split sleeve features a 4-way flexing action that effectively absorbs parallel misalignment up to 0.017 inches and angular misalignment up to 0.25 degrees, protecting your motor and driven equipment from premature bearing failure. With a torque rating of 7,200 in-lbs and a maximum speed of 3,750 RPM, it is built to handle rigorous starts and stops. The Hytrel material operates efficiently in extreme environments, maintaining performance across a temperature range of -65°F to +250°F (-54°C to +121°C) and offering excellent resistance to oils and chemical exposure without requiring lubrication.

• High Torque Capacity: Special Hytrel thermoplastic construction delivers 7,200 in-lbs of torque, ideal for high-load power transmission.
• Split Construction: Two-piece design permits rapid sleeve replacement without shaft or motor disassembly.
• Equipment Protection: Dampens torsional vibration and absorbs shaft misalignment to extend the life of connected mechanical components.
• Rugged Durability: Naturally resistant to chemical degradation and suitable for high-temperature mechanical rooms.
• Maintenance-Free: No lubrication or grease is required, ensuring a clean and quiet operating environment.

• Can I use this 9HS Hytrel sleeve with J or B series flanges? No, Hytrel sleeves are specifically designed for use with S, C, or SC flanges only due to the high torque loads.
• Does the package include the metal retaining ring? Yes, this split sleeve model 9HS comes with the necessary retaining ring to secure the split halves during operation.
• What is the maximum operating speed for the size 9 Hytrel element? The 9HS is rated for a maximum speed of 3,750 RPM.
