Lovejoy 68514431164 D-type Single Universal Joint

Product Description

The LOVEJOY 68514431164 is a D-type single universal joint engineered for mechanical power transmission applications requiring reliable torque transfer through angular misalignment. This joint features a 1 inch bore depth, a 1/2 inch inside boot diameter, and a 1 inch outside boot diameter, with a rated torque capacity of 1,040 in/lb. It is installed by mechanical technicians, millwrights, and industrial service professionals in drive train and shaft coupling assemblies where a compact, single-joint configuration is appropriate.

This universal joint is suited for use in industrial machinery, light-duty drive shafts, and mechanical assemblies where controlled angular deflection is required between two rotating shafts. The D-type single configuration makes it appropriate for applications with moderate torque demands and limited space envelopes. It is sold individually and is compatible with shaft and coupling setups that match its stated bore and diameter dimensions.

Key Features

• D-type single universal joint configuration for straightforward inline or angled shaft connections
• Rated torque capacity of 1,040 in/lb for moderate-duty mechanical drive applications
• 1 inch bore depth accommodates standard shaft sizing in industrial and light commercial equipment
• 1/2 inch inside boot diameter by 1 inch outside boot diameter for precise shaft fitment
• Compact single-joint design suited for installations with limited clearance
• Sold in single-unit quantity with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service part for mechanical drive assemblies requiring a D-type single universal joint with a 1/2 inch inside by 1 inch outside boot diameter and a 1 inch bore depth.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or millwright familiar with shaft coupling procedures. Always de-energize and lock out the drive system before removing or installing universal joints. Verify shaft dimensions match the bore depth and diameter specifications before assembly. Follow applicable machinery safety standards and manufacturer torque sequencing guidelines during installation.
