Lovejoy offers flexible sleeves for S-Flex Endurance couplings in three designs: one-piece solid, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split design provides solutions for applications with
unique requirements where small shaft separations inhibit the installation
of a one-piece solid sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter of the sleeve engage with teeth of
the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are needed to connect the flanges with the
flexible sleeve which securely lock together under torque for smooth
transmission of power
Torque is transmitted through shear loading of the sleeve
All three sleeve materials are highly elastic which permits the S-Flex
coupling to protect connected equipment from harmful shock loading,
vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Types
These sleeves feature a one-piece design molded in EPDM & Neoprene
rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Types, the one-piece design is split to
provide for ease of installation and removal.
Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex Endurance couplings are supplied with EPDM flexible sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
