Lovejoy 68514431167 D-type Single Universal Joint 3480 In/lbs

Product Description

The LOVEJOY 68514431167 is a D-Type single universal joint designed to transmit rotational motion between shafts that are misaligned or at an angle. It handles a rated torque of 3,480 inch-pounds and features a bore depth of 1-1/16 inches, making it suited to moderate-duty mechanical drive applications. The joint measures 5/8 inch inside diameter, 1-1/4 inch outside diameter, and 3-3/4 inches overall length. This type of universal joint is typically installed by millwrights, mechanical contractors, or equipment technicians working on power transmission assemblies in industrial and commercial settings.

This D-Type single universal joint is used in mechanical power transmission systems where a single articulating joint is required between two shafts that are offset or angled relative to each other. Typical applications include light-to-moderate industrial drive systems, HVAC equipment drive trains, and machinery requiring flexible shaft coupling. The compact OAL of 3-3/4 inches suits installations with limited axial space. No specific compatible equipment models are listed in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or mechanical technician. De-energize and lock out all power to the drive system before removing or installing the joint, following applicable LOTO procedures. Ensure shaft alignment is within the joint's rated angular operating range to avoid premature wear. Do not exceed the rated torque of the joint during operation.
