The hub is machined from aluminum and paired with a stainless steel bellows element, combining light weight with corrosion resistance and torsional flexibility. It accepts a minimum bore diameter of 3\/4 inches, measures 1.77 inches in outside diameter, and spans 2.48 inches overall length. Rated at 159 inch-pounds of torque, this coupling is suited for precision motion control, pump drives, and servo-driven equipment. Installation is typically performed by millwrights, mechanical technicians, or industrial maintenance professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 68514476984 belongs to the LOVEJOY BWC Series, size code BWLC63. It is a clamp-style coupling, meaning shaft retention is achieved through a clamping mechanism rather than set screws, which reduces the risk of shaft marring and simplifies alignment during installation. Common applications include connecting motor shafts to pumps, encoders, or gear reducers in light-to-medium duty industrial environments. The stainless steel bellows element accommodates minor angular and parallel misalignment while maintaining consistent torque transmission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClamp-style hub retention reduces shaft damage compared to set-screw designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum hub keeps rotating weight low for responsive drive systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel bellows element provides corrosion resistance and torsional flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e159 inch-pound torque rating suitable for light-to-medium duty drive applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 2.48 inch overall length fits tight shaft-to-shaft spacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBWC Series, size BWLC63 for straightforward cross-reference and replacement ordering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit coupling for mechanical drive assemblies requiring a 3\/4 inch bore, clamp-style bellows coupling within the LOVEJOY BWC Series, size code BWLC63.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShut down and lock out all power to the drive system before beginning coupling installation or removal. Ensure both shafts are clean, free of burrs, and within the bore diameter specification before inserting. Align shafts within the angular and parallel misalignment tolerances specified in the LOVEJOY BWC Series installation guide. Tighten clamp hardware evenly and verify coupling runout before 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: Bellows Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: BWC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: BWLC63\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Bore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.77 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.48 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTorque Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 159 inch-pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum hub with stainless steel bellows\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp Style\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.44 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: 68514476984\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LOVEJOY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541749498162,"sku":"68514476984","price":564.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ba1e746ede41f7c3978e75f6c93c4fb8_8eea8bf5-1627-4a37-bba5-9695d590e76e.jpg?v=1785883916","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/lovejoy-68514476984-flexible-bellows-clamp-3-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
