The Lovejoy C Type – Higher Torque Jaw Coupling is known for its versatility and reliability in various power transmission applications. This coupling consists of three primary components: two metal hubs and a resilient elastomeric element, commonly referred to as the "spider." The hubs are typically made from materials such as steel or aluminum and feature jaws that interlock with the spider. The elastomeric spider, available in different durometers, provides the flexibility to accommodate misalignments, reduce vibration, and dampen shock loads, ensuring smooth and efficient torque transmission.
FEATURES
1. Misalignment Accommodation: Capable of handling angular, parallel, and axial misalignments, which helps in extending the lifespan of connected equipment.
2. Vibration Damping: The elastomeric spider absorbs vibrations and reduces noise, contributing to quieter and more stable operation.
3. Shock Absorption: Protects connected equipment by absorbing and cushioning shock loads.
4. Easy Installation and Maintenance: The simple design allows for quick assembly and disassembly, facilitating easy maintenance and reducing downtime.
5. Variety of Sizes and Materials: Available in multiple sizes and materials to suit different applications and torque requirements.
The Lovejoy C Type coupling is widely used in industries such as manufacturing, mining, and material handling, where reliable and efficient power transmission is critical.
