Name of the brass part from Animatronic Characters - Organic Mechanics course

Hi all,

I've been chasing the name of the brass coupler use in the jaw mech pictured below.
Does anyone know the specs / what it is called and or where I would find in Australia?

Thank you.

    That looks to be a "shaft coupler" specifically flange shaft coupler.

    That will get you a long list of couplers but they only vary by size of the shaft, number of shaft tighteners and number of fasteners in the rotational face. I would describe that one as "1/4 inch flange style shaft coupler with 3 face mounts". This is one half of a full coupler set as they are meant to connect one shaft to another linearly but instead are being used here to connect to the animatronic. This is my search terms and not a reference to notes from the session. Some retailers will also use the term "rigid" for "rigid flange shaft coupler".
