Shaft couplers, also known as shaft connectors, are used to connect two shafts. Set-screw shaft couplings are typically one-piece solid tubes with two threaded holes in their sides for driving set screws. When the set screws are pushed firmly against each shaft, friction is created, and the shafts are joined. Clamping shaft couplings come in one, two, or three-pieces and work similarly, except use screws to compress a split tube around the shafts to join them.
