Rod Alignment Couplers
Increase cylinder life by fixing alignment problems between air or hydraulic cylinders and driven components. Couplers have a threaded end that moves to compensate for the angle of misalignment, reducing wear on cylinder bearings and seals. Couplers have a male and female end.
