GTRIC 8-shaped Coupler D23L32 Type Plastic Flexible Eccentric Declination Elastic Coupling Dedicated Coupling for Encoder

Azabooti presents the GTRIC Eight-shaped Elastic Coupling for encoder-ready systems, a compact, durable solution for precise torque transmission. This D23L32 flexible coupling reduces misalignment and vibration while supporting lightweight automation setups.

Upgrade your precision motion with confidence. The GTRIC Eight-shaped Elastic Coupling is designed to smoothly transmit torque between shafts while compensating minor misalignment, eccentricity, and deflection. Built for encoder-ready applications, this flexible coupling helps reduce vibration and wear, delivering reliable performance in automation, robotics, and machinery where precision matters.

You’ll appreciate a compact, robust solution featuring a 16mm coupling diameter and a 32mm overall length, capable of handling speeds up to 3000 r/min with a rated torque of 0.15 N.m and a max torque of 0.3 N.m. The D23L32 series couples flexible aluminum housing with high-quality inner components, providing a durable, lightweight solution for your drive system.

Key benefits include easy alignment, smooth torque transmission, and resilient operation in environments requiring lightweight, versatile couplings. This unit supports a bore range from 3 to 8 mm and uses M3 mounting screws with a tightening specification around 1.2 N.m. The eight-shaped design optimizes misalignment compensation while maintaining a compact footprint, making it a practical upgrade for encoder-driven axes and servo motor integrations.

What you get with this coupling:

• Flexible, universal structure for adaptable mounting in diverse machine layouts
• Reliable micro-to-medium torque transmission suitable for encoders and automation components
• Rugged aluminum body with precision inner components for long-lasting performance
• Ease of installation with standard M3 screws and straightforward bore sizing
• RoHS-compliant materials and EN/ISO-ready construction for compliant applications

How to use and care for your coupling

• Check shaft bore compatibility (3–8 mm) and ensure proper adsorptive seating of the inner bushings
• Secure mounting with the provided screws, tightening to approximately 1.2 N.m - avoid over-tightening
• Inspect the coupling periodically for signs of wear, corrosion, or misalignment, and replace if needed
• Operate within the rated torque (0.15 N.m) and max speed (3000 r/min) to preserve performance

This eight-shaped elastic coupling is ideal for encoder-driven machines, servo systems, and precision automation where compact form, reliable performance, and ease of installation matter. Its lightweight aluminum construction pairs well with a broad range of motion control components, helping you keep your machine running smoothly and accurately.
