I will send you the photos of t-shirt and the link which has this design.

You can compare it with

that. My main concern is not with your t-shirt quality. But issue is that as the text and image size
is smaller on the t-shirt what i got than what shown in design pic which i saw on your website.

Rigid and Flexible

Rigid Couplings:
*Rigid couplings produce the greatest reactions on equipment. Mechanical Element type
such as gear, chain, and grid couplings produce moderate to high moments and forces on
equipment that are a function of torque and
misalignment. Elastomeric element couplings produce moderate to low moments and forces
that are slightly dependent on torque. Metallic Element couplings produce relatively low
moments and forces w hich are relatively
independent of torque.
*One-piece rigid couplings wrap around the shaft providing high torsional holding power
without the shaft damage and fretting inherent when set screw style couplings are used.
Two-piece styles have the additional benefits of allowing for disassembly and maintenance
without removal of other components. Two-piece couplings also feature opposing hardware
for dynamic balancing.
The most commonly used flexible couplings today are those that produce the greatest
flexibility (misalignment and axial
capacity) w hile producing the low est external loads on equipment.
b. Flexible Couplings:
There are three basic types of flexible couplings:
1. Mechanical Element
2. Elastomeric Element
3. Metallic Element
The mechanical element type generally obtain their flexibility from loose-fitting parts or
rolling or sliding of mating parts or from both.
They require lubrication unless one moving part is made of a material that supplies its own
lubrication need (e.g., a nylon gear coupling).
The elastomeric element types obtain their flexibility from stretching or compressing a
resilient material (rubber, plastic, etc.) . The metallic element types obtain their flexibility
from the flexing of thin metallic disc or diaphragms.
*Besides these basic function flexible couplings "sometimes" are required to do the

follow ing:
Dampen vibration and reduce peak or shock loads.
Protect equipment from overload
Measure output torque of driven equipment
Electrically Insulate the driver from the driven equipment
Position a rotor of a motor or generator
Be used to tune a system out of a torsional critical.
