U Type with Keyway, Regular Version - Inch (Imperial) Bores
(21) U Type Shaft-to-Shaft- The U Type is the basis for all Uniflex couplings. It is a shaft-to-shaft flexible coupling with a simple one piece design, making it ideal for indexing, robotic or positioning applications. The U Type consists of a triple-wound flexible steel spring brazed to a steel hub at each end. This all steel design ensures optimum equipment protection in severe environments and/or high temperature applications. Regular and short versions are available for most sizes to accommodate different overall length requirements. Special hub or bore modifications are also possible. These units can be supplied with either pin holes or with keyways and set screws. Lovejoy does not recommend the reboring of uniflex couplings by customers due to potential damage to the brazed joint.
- This is a durable one-piece flexible coupling for general purpose shaft-to- shaft applications. It is the basis for all Uniflex coupling types.

RRU Type Hubs with Keyway - Inch (Imperial) Bores
(4) RRU Type - Drop-Out Style- The RRU Type Uniflex coupling is designed for fast, easy installation and removal without disrupting the connected shafts. This is ideal when servicing impellers, bearings and seals. The design consists of two steel hubs fastened with cap screws to a Uniflex double flange coupling (UF Type). The RRU is easily disassembled by simply removing the cap screws and sliding out the UF center spring section.
- This design offers “quick disconnect” for drop out requirements. It can also accommodate a slightly larger shaft diameter than the standard U Type.
- Note: A complete RRU Type coupling is comprised of 2 hubs, 2 hardware kits, and a UF Type center drop out section.

UF Type / RRU Drop Out
(7) UF Type - Flange-to-Flange- This coupling is actually the center dropout section of the RRU Type, but it can be purchased separately for direct flange-to-flange mounting of the driving unit to the driven. The UF Type coupling compensates for high misalignment to protect connected equipment, yet it is also well-suited for applications which require negligible backlash or windup and reliability under high temperature conditions. Stock flange sizes are shown in the Dimensional Data table below, but other sizes can be provided to meet special mounting requirements.
- This flange-to-flange type is designed to connect flange mounted equipment to another flange while compensating for misalignment. It is also the center drop out section of the RRU Type.
- Note: The UF Type Drop Out does not come with assembly hardware. Assembly hardware must be purchased separately.
UFH Type with Keyway, Regular Version - Inch (Imperial) Bores
(11) UFH Type - Flange-to-Shaft- A flange-to-shaft configuration, this couples flange mounted equipment to a shaft with all the benefits of Uniflex versatility. The stock flange plate is the same as used on the UF Type.
The one-piece UFH Type coupling is similar to the U Type, except that one hub is replaced by a flange plate. Stock flange sizes are shown in the Dimensional Data table below but other sizes can be made to order. As with the other Uniflex styles, this coupling compensates for high degrees of angular and parallel misalignment with very little backlash or windup and is reliable in harsh or severe environments.
Regular and short versions are available for each size to accommodate different overall length requirements. For increased versatility, the hub can be modified with a tapered, spline, hex or square bore. The standard hub is furnished with either a pre-drilled pin hole or with a keyway and set screw. Specify when ordering.
- Note: The UFH Type coupling does not come with assembly hardware. Assembly hardware must be purchased separately.
