Manufactured from Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), this sleeve insert provides reliable torque transmission up to 120 inch-pounds while accommodating minor misalignment between connected shafts. With a minimum bore diameter of 0.5 inches and an outside diameter of 2.31 inches, it fits into tight drive train assemblies. The one-piece split sleeve design simplifies installation and removal without disassembling the entire drive system. Mechanical contractors and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers for this type of coupling hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for light-duty mechanical drive applications where flexibility and chemical resistance are required. The EPDM material offers good resistance to weathering, ozone, and a range of fluids, making it appropriate for both indoor and outdoor mechanical assemblies. The Series 4 sizing code and sleeve insert style are common in HVAC fan drive systems, pump drive trains, and general industrial equipment requiring a compact, flexible coupling solution. Overall assembly length of 1.25 inches keeps the footprint minimal in space-constrained installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne-piece split sleeve design allows installation and removal without full shaft disassembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEPDM material provides ozone, weather, and fluid resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated torque capacity of 120 inch-pounds (17.63 Newton-meters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum bore diameter of 0.5 inches fits standard half-inch shafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1.25 inch overall length suits tight drive configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeries 4 sizing for straightforward cross-referencing and replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement sleeve insert for Series 4 flexible coupling assemblies requiring a 0.5 inch minimum bore and a 2.31 inch outside diameter EPDM sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified mechanical technician. De-energize all connected motors and lock out the drive system before removing or installing coupling components, following OSHA lockout\/tagout procedures. Inspect shaft surfaces for burrs or damage before seating the sleeve to ensure proper fit and torque transfer. Do not exceed the rated torque specification for this sleeve size during assembly.\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 Split Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sleeve Insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTorque Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 120 inch-pounds (17.63 Newton-meters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 68514436695\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LOVEJOY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542730932530,"sku":"68514436695","price":28.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2cf3a25097eb6ae400081f89bb91c6e8_feaf5fd6-578b-4a87-9b74-121ed67fffef.jpg?v=1785905642","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lovejoy-68514436695-split-sleeve-coupling-1-2-in-bore-epdm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
