Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.219(i)(2): Couplings. Shaft couplings shall be so constructed as to present no hazard from bolts, nuts, setscrews, or revolving surfaces. Bolts, nuts, and setscrews will, however, be permitted where they are covered with safety sleeves or where they are used parallel with the shafting and are countersunk or else do not extend beyond the flange of the coupling: On or about January 18, 2018, shaft couplings on the Roll Blast setup in the south corner of the first floor production area were not constructed as to present no hazard from bolts, nuts, or revolving surfaces. The projecting hardware of couplings and the revolving surfaces of the spline universal joint, which connected industrial rolls to the drive shaft and the drive shaft to the motor respectively, were not guarded to prevent them from coming into contact with employees or their clothing.
