produces its torque by virtue of the centrifugal force of weights pressing against the driving or frictionally driven member.
Centrifugal clutch
162
consists of a frustum of a cone, so fitted to a shaft by means of a feather key that it can be pushed into an opposite engaging surface rigidly attached to the other shaft.
conical friction clutch
163
designed to transmit torque without slip, jaw clutches are the most common. These are made with square jaws for driving in either directions, or spiral jaws for unidirectional drive. These are used for slow-moving shafts, where sudden starting action is not objectionable and where the inertia of the moving parts is relatively small.
Positive clutches
164
are used when the shafts are virtually collinear and when they remain in a fixed angular relation with respect to each other (except for angular deflection).
Rigid couplings
165
is essentially a split and bolted sleeve coupling, proportioned to clamp firmly on the shafts
Clamp shaft coupling
166
are commonly used in permanent installations for heavy loads and large sizes and particularly for vertical drives, as agitators
Flange face coupling
167
are designed to connect shafts which are misaligned either laterally or angularly. A secondary benefit is the absorption of impacts due to fluctuations in shaft torque or angular speed.
Flexible couplings
168
The hubs have integral external gear teeth, perhaps crowned, that mesh with internal teeth in the casing through 360° as in a splined connection. Flexibility is obtained by play between the teeth
Gear-type coupling
169
Eliminates the need for large clearances and the resultant noisy backlash by providing a double-tongued central slider fitting between two flanges slotted at right angles to each other
Oldham (double slider) coupling
170
The rubber-bushed coupling cushions by means of steel pins bolted alternately to one flange and sliding in self-lubricated bronze bushings, rubber-cushioned in the opposite flange. The construction permits free axial movement to accommodate motor end play and is especially suited to damping shock and momentary overload. It also affords electrical insulation, thus preventing such dangers as electrolysis in direct motor-driven pumps.
Rubber-bushed coupling
171
The two opposing hubs are made with integral sprockets over which a double roller chain is fitted. The drive is through the chain. Flexibility is obtained by lateral play in the fit of the chain over the sprocket teeth.
Roller chain flexible coupling
172
In a rubber-flexible coupling, the torque is transmitted through a comparatively soft rubber in compression. It is recommended where quietness is desired
Rubber-flexible coupling
173
are used to connect shafts with much larger values of misalignment than can be tolerated by the other types of flexible couplings

provides high strength and stiffness while offering enhanced dimensional stability and ease of machining. A semi-crystalline material, acetal also has a low coefficient of friction and good wear properties-especially in wet environments. Because it absorbs little moisture, acetal demonstrates excellent stability for close-tolerance machined parts. In high-moisture or submerged applications, acetal bearings outperform nylon 4 to 1. This material is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including many solvents. And it is available in a broad range of grades (see below), with properties addressing specific needs.
Acetals
183
shall be made from virgin acrylic monomer and offers superior optical clarity and light transmission. It shall not affected by sunlight; it resists aging; and it remains stable across a wide range of temperature, moisture, and exposure conditions. It will not crack, craze, or corrode. Cast acrylic is preferred for some industrial and commercial applications because of its optical superiority over molded or extruded acrylic products. Cast acrylic can be machined or cemented and, with standard equipment, will fabricate like wood, metal, or other plastics. It weighs half as much as comparable glass and yet has good shatter resistance and durability.
Cast acrylic
184
also known as nylon is one of the most versatile and widely used thermoplastic materials. Its physical properties and reasonable price combine to make it a popular choice for numerous applications. It can replace steel, brass, bronze, aluminum, wood, and rubber, while reducing noise, using less lubrication, and increasing gear life. Using standard metalworking equipment, nylon can easily be machined and fabricated into precision parts.
Polyamide (Nylon)
185
is an amorphous thermoplastic with excellent dimensional stability and good strength and stiffness over a wide range of service temperatures. It is often used for structural applications when transparency and impact strength are essential-such as lenses, manifolds, site glasses, and machine guards. Polycarbonate suits a wide variety of electrical applications as well, because of its low moisture absorption, good insulation and excellent flammability rating.
Polycarbonate
186
is noted for its light weight, being less dense than water; it is a polymer of propylene. It resists moisture, oils, and solvents. Since its melting point is 121°C (250°F), it is used in the manufacture of objects that are sterilized in the course of their use.
Polypropylene
187
more popularly known as Teflon is based on chain of carbon atoms, the same as all polymers. Given their good dynamic mechanical properties and sufficient flexibility, PTFE and modified PTFE-based materials are ideally suited for use as dynamic seals and bearings, even when the stress is extreme.
Polyterafluoroethylene (PTFE)
188
is a thermoplastic that is a polymer of vinyl chloride. Resins of polyvinyl chloride are hard, but with the addition of plasticizers a flexible, elastic plastic can be made. This plastic has found extensive use as an electrical insulator for wires and cables.

``` This bonding class is appropriate for veneer plywood intended for protected external applications (e.g. behind cladding or under roof coverings), but capable of resisting weather exposure for short periods (e.g. when exposed during construction). It is also suitable for interior situations where the service moisture condition is higher than the class 1 level. ```
Class 2 (humid conditions)
203
``` This bonding class is designed for veneer plywood intended for exposure to weather over sustained periods. ```
Class 3 (exterior conditions)
204
A high density fiberboard without subsequent treatment generally intended for interior use.
Standard fiberboard
205
A high density fiberboard that has been specially treated with drying oil, petroleum derivatives or other compounds stabilized by baking or heating, and generally intended for the use where moisture resistance is required.
Tempered fiberboard
206
A hardboard without any factory-applied finish.
Plain
207
High density fiberboard with a smooth surface on one side and a screen impression on the other side.
Smooth-one-side (S1S)
208
High density fiberboard with smooth surfaces on both sides.
Smooth-two-sides (S2S)
209
Hardboard which has a pattern impressed on one surface, e.g. simulating some other materials such as leather, sawali, wood grain, bark, diamond, fine weave, and others.
Decorative
210
Usually S1S hardboard with holes punched or drilled at the factory for use with various fixtures to provide decorative wall-mounted storage facilities or which may be used for acoustic purposes.
