Rigid Shaft Coupling 1 in Bore
The Dayton 3ZN61 is a one-piece rigid shaft coupling machined from carbon steel with a black oxide finish. It joins two shafts that share the same 1 inch round keyed bore size. The coupling transmits torque without flexibility, making it suitable for aligned drive assemblies in industrial machinery.
Check Shaft Dimensions and Speed
Verify that both shafts measure exactly 1 inch in diameter and feature keyways matching the 1/4 inch width and 1/8 inch depth specified for this coupling. Confirm the application speed does not exceed 4,000 RPM and that the torque requirement stays within the 2,600 in-lb rating. Misalignment or overspeed will cause premature failure.
One-Piece Carbon Steel Construction
The single-piece design eliminates moving parts and backlash, so the connection remains fixed once the set screws engage the keyways. An outside diameter of 1.85 inches and an overall length of 3 inches define the space the coupling occupies on the shaft. The black oxide coating provides basic corrosion resistance in dry environments.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and is any additional hardware needed for installation?
The box contains the rigid steel coupling only; key stock and set screws must be sourced separately.
The listing shows a single model — how do I know this is the correct bore and torque rating for my application?
This coupling has a 1 in round keyed bore on both ends and a 2,600 in-lb torque rating, so match those figures to your shaft and load requirements.
What does the 4,000 RPM rating mean when the coupling is mounted on a real shaft?
It indicates the maximum safe rotational speed; operating above 4,000 RPM risks imbalance and premature wear.
