Re: Where to get lightweight flexible coupling?

You could always use previous year's black plastic couplings, if you want the ultimate light-weight coupling. You'd have to buy the hex shaft that fits in them, and bore/broach it to 1/2" with keyway.

Re: Where to get lightweight flexible coupling?

First off, the above is an excellent idea. I believe we have the parts, so we will consider it.

As for what I was originally looking for I believe I have found it. Not super light but better than iron, Applied Industrial sells aluminum LoveJoy couplings.
