Description

These flex couplers are ideal for attaching a 5mm threaded rod to standard NEMA 17 stepper motors. They feature two grub screws per shaft, so they grip strongly and won't slip!

Flexible couplers are great because they allow for slight misalignments in the coupled shafts - so even if your RepRap isn't perfectly aligned, these couplers will cut you some slack!

Note: Sold individually.

Allowed me to directly connect my NEMA17 stepper motor to M6x1 threaded rod by carefully tapping the 5mm hole on one end to M6. Flex joint forgives any slight error in alignment while maintaining accurate location. If you decide to tap one out, to M6 or 1/4", make sure you blow out any metal swarf so it doesn't bind the spiral flex section.
