Introducing L-Jaw Couplings and Spider Inserts
At MDS of Michigan, we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of providing innovative and high-quality industrial products to our customers. We are excited to introduce 181 NEW L-Jaw Couplings and 45 NEW L-Jaw Spider Inserts to our online store, as these versatile components play a crucial role in ensuring reliable power transmission in various industrial applications. In this blog post, we will delve into the importance of L-Jaw Couplings and Spider Inserts, highlighting their key features and benefits.
So, What are L-Jaw Couplings?
L-Jaw Couplings are highly flexible and torsionally resilient couplings designed to connect two rotating shafts. They provide an efficient and reliable method of transmitting torque while accommodating misalignments and shock loads. The “L” shape of the jaws, combined with the elastomeric Spider Insert, allows for superior vibration damping and compensation of angular, parallel, and axial misalignments.
On our website we will sell L035 through L225 L-Jaw Couplings. Our L225 will be made out of a cast iron hub, while all other sizes are made out of powdered metal. Each will come with set screws of various sizes. Additionally, for the first time on our online store, we will have key way and non-key way options available depending on your need and application.
Key Features and Benefits of L-Jaw Couplings
- Misalignment Compensation: L-Jaw Couplings excel at compensating for misalignment between shafts caused by factors like vibration, temperature fluctuations, or assembly errors. Their design allows for angular, parallel, and axial misalignment compensation, thereby reducing stress on connected components and extending their service life.
- Shock Load Absorption: Industrial applications often involve sudden shock loads and impacts. L-Jaw Couplings with their elastomeric Spider Inserts absorb these shocks, preventing damage to sensitive equipment and improving overall system reliability.
- High Torque Transmission: L-Jaw Couplings can transmit high torque levels while maintaining flexibility and misalignment compensation. This feature makes them suitable for heavy-duty applications, ensuring efficient power transmission even in demanding environments.

Introducing L-Jaw Spider Inserts
L-Jaw Spider Inserts are an integral component of the L-Jaw Couplings, providing the necessary elasticity and damping properties. These inserts are available in various materials to accommodate different application requirements.
Online we sell, Buna-N (Black), Hytrel (White), Urethane (Orange), and Bronze. They come in differing sizes to fit L035 through L225 L-Jaw Couplings. All inserts have a closed center except for the Bronze inserts which have an open center.
Key Features and Benefits of L-Jaw Spider Inserts
- Vibration Damping: The elastomeric properties of L-Jaw Spider Inserts effectively dampen vibrations and minimize the transfer of shocks and impacts throughout the system. This feature helps reduce noise, prevent premature wear, and enhance the overall operational efficiency.
- Enhanced Flexibility: L-Jaw Spider Inserts allow for angular, parallel, and axial misalignment compensation, ensuring smooth power transmission even in situations where shafts are not perfectly aligned. This flexibility helps reduce stress on connected components, minimizing the risk of failure and downtime.
- Chemical and Temperature Resistance: L-Jaw Spider Inserts are designed to withstand a wide range of operating conditions. They exhibit excellent resistance to chemicals, oils, and extreme temperatures, making them suitable for use in diverse industrial environments.
Our team here at MDS commits to providing our customers with comprehensive and reliable industrial solutions. The introduction of L-Jaw Couplings and L-Jaw Spider is a continuation of that promise, and we are just getting started.
