This cast iron hub accepts a maximum bore diameter of 5\/8 inches and features a 3\/16 inch by 3\/32 inch keyway width and depth for positive shaft engagement. The outer diameter measures 3-1\/4 inches with an overall length of 2.88 inches. Rated to 7,600 RPM, it suits a wide range of industrial and HVAC mechanical drive applications. Installation is typically performed by millwrights, HVAC mechanics, or maintenance technicians working on coupled shaft assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flexible coupling hub is used in applications where two shafts must be joined with some capacity for angular, parallel, or axial misalignment. Common install scenarios include fan drives, pump drives, and motor-to-shaft connections in light industrial and commercial mechanical systems. The cast iron construction provides durability in environments where moderate shock loads and vibration are present. The hub is part of the 6J coupling size family and is intended for use as one half of a complete flexible coupling assembly paired with a mating hub and spider insert.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum bore diameter of 5\/8 inches for compatibility with common shaft sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch by 3\/32 inch keyway provides positive, non-slip shaft engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-1\/4 inch outer diameter and 2.88 inch overall length in a compact profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 7,600 RPM for use in higher-speed drive applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCast iron construction for durability under moderate shock and vibration loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoupling size code 6J for use with matching LOVEJOY 6J series hubs and spider elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hub carries coupling size code 6J and is designed for use in LOVEJOY 6J series flexible coupling assemblies.

De-energize and lock out the drive motor before beginning any shaft or coupling work, following applicable OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures. Ensure bore and keyway dimensions match the shaft before pressing or fitting the hub. Do not exceed the rated 7,600 RPM and verify alignment of both hubs after assembly to minimize load on the spider element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Bore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKeyway Width x Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches x 3\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Diameter (OD)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.88 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7,600 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6J\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.34 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: LOVEJOY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 68514436078\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LOVEJOY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542239117618,"sku":"68514436078","price":62.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4e3f1925df7164dd9b67c22238b0d0f9.jpg?v=1785896068","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lovejoy-68514436078-flexible-coupling-hub-5-8-in-cast-iron","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
