Q - Do you want to couple A to B ?

No - you don't need a coupling.

Yes - Use A coupling.

The How depend on the what!!!!!

(shafts, cables, . . . . .)

Sorry for sounding rude.

What type of coupling did you had in mind?

Look into your crystal ball. Don't you just love it when they think we can read their minds.

The two basic things are do you want a coupling for misalignment purposes or for torsional vibration damping purposes. Then you use the coupling companies selection software. The sales people will explain this also.

I heard that Hawaii and Massachusetts are allowing same sex coupling.....not that there is anything wrong with that.
