About this product
A machined aluminum shaft coupler with a spiral cut that makes it slightly flexible. It joins a NEMA 23 stepper shaft of 6.35 mm to a 5 mm shaft, and the flex helps absorb small misalignment and reduce bending load. It suits stepper-driven lead screws and positioning systems in CNC and robotics builds.

Frequently asked questions
Is it suitable for a NEMA 23 stepper motor?
Yes, it is designed for NEMA 23 stepper shafts with a standard 6.35 mm diameter. Its 5 mm bore on the other side fits a shaft of that size, such as a lead screw or encoder shaft.
Why choose a flexible coupler instead of a rigid one?
The spiral cut lets the coupler tolerate slight misalignment between shafts and reduces bending stress on the motor bearings. If the shafts are perfectly aligned, a rigid coupler also works.
