Product overview

The IKA FK 1 flexible coupling is designed to connect compatible overhead-stirrer components while compensating for small structural or alignment variations. It is particularly useful for stirring assemblies that use glass stirring rods and require a flexible mechanical connection.

Key Features:

Brand: IKA
Product Type: Flexible Stirrer Coupling
Clamping Range: 6-10 mm
Application: Stirring tasks using compatible glass stirring rods
Function: Compensates for structural and alignment variations
Equipment Type: Accessory for compatible overhead stirrers

This coupling provides a practical connection between a compatible stirrer drive and glass stirring rod. The shaft diameter and complete assembly should be checked before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the IKA FK 1 Flexible Coupling, 6-10 mm Clamping Range used for?

It is designed for connecting compatible overhead-stirrer drives and glass stirring rods. The flexible connection helps compensate for alignment differences and supports stable torque transfer within a correctly assembled stirring system.

2. Why use a flexible coupling with a glass stirring rod?

The flexible connection can compensate for small alignment or structural variations in the stirring assembly. This helps reduce rigid loading on a compatible glass stirring rod.

3. What clamping range does the coupling provide?

The coupling has a clamping range of 6 to 10 mm. The stirring rod and drive connection must both fall within the compatible assembly requirements.

4. What should be checked before installation?

Users should confirm shaft diameter, overhead-stirrer compatibility and the alignment of the complete stirring assembly. The coupling should only be used within a correctly supported setup.
