One-Piece Rigid Couplings
Ruland one-piece rigid couplings deliver strong, reliable shaft connections without marring, making them ideal for high-torque and precision applications. Each coupling features Ruland’s proprietary Nypatch® anti-vibration coating for secure, repeatable installations and enhanced performance in stainless steel versions by reducing galling. Precision-honed straight bores ensure collinearity, maximizing shaft contact and torque transmission—especially critical in servo systems. Available in 1215 lead-free steel with black oxide finish, 303 stainless steel, and lightweight 2024 aluminum.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A one-piece rigid coupling is a solid connector that clamps around two aligned shafts, creating a single, rigid assembly. Because it is machined from one piece of material, it offers high torsional stiffness and zero backlash for precise positioning.
Use a one-piece rigid coupling when the shafts can be brought together and aligned before installation, and when maximum concentricity and torque capacity are required. A two-piece style is typically chosen when you need to install or remove the coupling without disturbing other components.
Nypatch® is a proprietary coating applied to the coupling screws that adds prevailing torque. It resists loosening from vibration and repeated load cycles, helping maintain clamp force and improving long-term reliability, especially in dynamic or servo-driven systems.
These couplings are offered in 1215 lead-free steel with black oxide finish for maximum strength, 303 stainless steel for corrosion resistance, and 2024 aluminum for low inertia and weight-sensitive applications.
Ruland one-piece rigid couplings are designed to provide a strong, uniform clamping force around the shaft without the point loading associated with set screws. When installed correctly, this minimizes shaft marring and helps maintain shaft integrity.
Yes. Their high torsional stiffness, precision-honed bores and zero-backlash clamping make them well suited for servo, stepper and other positioning systems where accurate shaft alignment and repeatable performance are critical.
