DECKMASTER
Light Weight Magnesium Construction (24% weight
of cast iron - - 64% weight of aluminum) provides many
important benefits, such as a largely reduced flywheel
effect and low starting and stopping inertia; reduced
load on bearings extends life of pump, motor and/or
machine: easier handling for installation; and rust proof
and corrosion resistance.
Visual Alignment - Accurately machined, flat exterior
surface permits easy alignment by using a simple
straight edge or scale - no special tools or templates are
needed (see back cover for installation instructions).
Maximum Torsional Strength - Solid magnesium alloy
sand castings are heat treated and offer the highest
strength-to-weight ratio available. Design includes
reinforced drive lugs, and a capsulated insert to prevent
insert extrusion and disintegration at high speeds, or
high loads.
Precision Machining - All Magnaloy couplings are
machined to .002" T.I.R. between center line of bore
and large O.D. Machining tolerances of ±.010" with
critical dimensions ±.001". This extreme manufacturing
precision assures vibration-free (balanced) operation
even at very high RPMs, and permits matched parts
replacement.
