Constructed from Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), this sleeve insert is part of the LOVEJOY JE Series and handles bore diameters from 0.875 inches up to 2.375 inches with a 6-inch outside diameter and a 3-inch overall length. It is rated to 1800 inch-pounds of torque, making it suitable for demanding drive applications. Licensed mechanics, millwrights, and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis EPDM sleeve coupling is used in industrial power transmission applications where flexible shaft connections are required. The JE Series sleeve design fits between two flanged jaw hubs, cushioning shock loads and dampening torsional vibration in pumps, compressors, fans, conveyors, and similar rotating equipment. It is appropriate for both light commercial and industrial service environments where EPDM material properties — including resistance to heat, ozone, and weathering — are a benefit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne-piece solid sleeve design eliminates the need for multiple insert segments during installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEPDM construction provides resistance to heat, ozone, and environmental weathering\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAccommodates bore range from 7\/8 inch to 2-3\/8 inches within a single sleeve size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated torque capacity of 1800 inch-pounds for demanding drive system requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eJE Series sizing code 9 with 6-inch outside diameter for standardized hub compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 1.46 pounds, reducing added rotational mass in the drivetrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard service sleeve for LOVEJOY JE Series jaw coupling hubs accepting a size 9 sleeve insert with bore diameters between 7\/8 inch and 2-3\/8 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by qualified millwrights or industrial maintenance technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the drive motor and associated equipment before removing or installing any coupling component. Inspect mating jaw hubs for wear, cracking, or deformation before fitting the new sleeve. Verify shaft alignment is within the coupling manufacturer tolerances prior to returning the drive to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: One Piece Solid Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: JE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sleeve Insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Bore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch (0.8750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Bore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1800 inch-pounds (264.38 N\/m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.46 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: 68514436405\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LOVEJOY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542868361522,"sku":"68514436405","price":99.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ed80566cc500f8ab06ed947a98dae91a.jpg?v=1785909380","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lovejoy-68514436405-epdm-flexible-sleeve-7-8-2-3-8-in-bore","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
