Molded from Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), this sleeve insert style coupling accommodates a minimum bore diameter of 0.5 inches and delivers a rated torque of 240 inch-pounds (in\/lb). At 1.56 inches overall length and 2.94 inches outside diameter, it fits within compact drive assemblies where space is limited. The one-piece split sleeve design allows the coupling to be installed or replaced without disturbing connected equipment, making it practical for maintenance techs working on pumps, motors, and similar rotating equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coupling is suited for light industrial, HVAC, and mechanical service applications where flexible EPDM couplings are specified. The Series JE sleeve insert style is typically used in jaw-type coupling assemblies, serving as the flexible element that absorbs vibration and compensates for minor shaft misalignment. It is installed by mechanical and HVAC technicians during both new equipment installation and scheduled coupling maintenance.\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 disconnecting shafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEPDM material provides flexibility, vibration damping, and resistance to weathering and ozone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated torque of 240 in\/lb (35.26 Newton-meters) for reliable power transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum bore diameter of 0.5 inches fits standard half-inch shafting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.94 inch outside diameter and 1.56 inch overall length for compact installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeries JE, Coupling Size Code 5, sleeve insert style for direct OEM-style replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement flexible sleeve element for LOVEJOY Series JE jaw-type coupling assemblies using Size Code 5 hubs with a minimum bore diameter of 0.5 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and replacement should be performed by a qualified mechanical or HVAC technician. De-energize and lock out all connected motors and drives before servicing any coupling components in accordance with applicable LOTO procedures. The split sleeve design eliminates the need to remove hubs from shafts, but verify shaft alignment is within acceptable limits before returning the assembly to service. Inspect mating hub jaws for wear or damage any time the sleeve element is replaced.\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: JE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoupling Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\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: 2.94 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.56 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 in\/lb (35.26 N\/m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 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: 68514436698\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LOVEJOY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540254327090,"sku":"68514436698","price":44.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9cbba1c97f963eb5a43596aba309ee7c.jpg?v=1785850366","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lovejoy-68514436698-split-sleeve-coupling-1-2-in-epdm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
