What is love joy coupling?

Lovejoy is the legacy company/brand behind the original straight jaw flexible coupling. A Lovejoy flexible jaw coupling is comprised of two hubs and an elastomeric spider that accommodates minor misalignment and avoid metal to metal torque transmission between the hubs. One main advantage is that it can still work during slightly failed condition. If the spider fails or wears away, the jaws of the two hubs will generally engage with each other and continue carrying torque for some period of time. This type of coupling is generally resistant to dirt, moisture, sand and grease. These couplings come with a wide selection of hub and spider materials to handle a wide array of operating temperatures and torque transmission requirements.


Difference between a mechanical coupling and mechanical joint?

mechanical coupling can be called as a mechanical device which is used to connect two mechanical links as well as transmit power between them. mechanical joint is just used to joint two linkages . there is no power or torque transmission between them .


What is scoop coupling?

Scoop coupling is nothing but a fluid coupling works based on the hydro dynamic principle. Scooping is the collecting the oil from the working chamber(space between pump wheel and turbine wheel) which will effects the transmission.


What is ventilation perfusion coupling?

Ventilation perfusion coupling is the amount of gas reaching alveoli & blood flow in pulmonary capillaries; local autoregulation.

Can Victaulic coupling be used for undrground buried pipes?

Victaulic products have a long history of being used on underground piping systems.


What is the torque value for victaulic couplings?

The torque value for Victaulic couplings typically ranges from 30 to 90 ft-lbs, depending on the size and type of the coupling being used. It's important to consult the specific manufacturer's installation instructions for precise torque specifications, as they can vary based on the material and application. Proper torque ensures a secure connection and prevents leaks. Always use a calibrated torque wrench for accurate measurements.


Can you use victaulic coupling on natural gas?

No, many fluids and air. No approval for natural gas.


Can a victaulic coupling be used on a relief vent from a chiller with R-134A refrigerant?

Yes, a Victaulic coupling can be used on a relief vent from a chiller using R-134A refrigerant, provided that the materials of the coupling are compatible with the refrigerant and the operating conditions. It's important to ensure that the coupling can handle the temperature and pressure requirements of the system. Additionally, always consult relevant codes and manufacturer recommendations to ensure compliance and safety.


What is a victaulic fitting?

A Victaulic fitting is really a grooved end fitting that is used with grooved end pipe, joined with a coupling. These are found on a variety of commercial and industrial piping systems. Victaulic is the company that originated the grooved piping method so the name "Victaulic" is their registered trade name. The correct generic terminology for these fittings is simply grooved end fittings.


Comparison between fluid coupling and torque converter?

They are of similar design, but a fluid coupling simply transmits torque (with some frictional loss), while a torque converter amplifies torque, similar to a reduction gear.


Why was Victaulic plainlock style 90 coupling discontinued?

The Victaulic plainlock style 90 coupling was discontinued primarily due to advancements in technology and materials that led to the development of more efficient and higher-performing coupling designs. Additionally, changes in industry standards and customer preferences for improved features, such as enhanced sealing capabilities and easier installation, contributed to its phase-out. The company likely focused on streamlining its product offerings to prioritize more innovative solutions that better meet modern piping system needs.


When was Victaulic created?

Victaulic was created in 1925.


Will the victaulic coupling dampen the vibration from the source equipment?

The Victaulic system will dampen a small amount of the vibration from the source equipment due to the type of connection it is, pulse and axial forces due to the displacment of the product or the action of the delivery equipment or just the expansion of the piping will not be dampened. I believe there are fittings available to address the problem of vibration transfer. cheers


Will a victaulic fitting work as a dielectric?

Victaulic makes a dielectric fitting that could solve your issue.


What is the use of oldham's coupling?
