Overview
The TB Woods L-150-1-1/8 is a precision-engineered L-Jaw coupling hub for industrial shaft alignment and power transmission. This TB Woods L-150-1-1/8 hub features a 1-1/8 inch bore diameter and 3.75 inch outside diameter, making it ideal for systems requiring reliable elastomeric coupling assemblies. The L-Jaw design accommodates both radial and angular misalignment while minimizing reaction loads on connected equipment. No lubrication or maintenance is required, making it a dependable choice for variable-speed and variable-torque applications across manufacturing, process control, and machinery automation.
Key Features
- Direct Interchangeability: TB Wood’s L-jaw coupling assemblies are directly interchangeable with industry standard couplings
- Bore Size 1-1/8″: Designed for mid-range shaft diameters in standard industrial equipment
- 3.75″ Outside Diameter: Compact form factor suitable for space-constrained installations
- Carbon Steel Construction: Durable hub material rated for reliable performance in heavy-duty environments
- No Maintenance Required: No lubrication or maintenance is required
- Flexible Assembly: Combine this coupling hub with another hub and a spider insert to form a complete L-jaw coupling assembly; spiders are sold separately
