got a Lovejoy coupling, is this 11486 spider the little insert that goes between the jaws?

Question by: Scott T on Jul 29, 2025, 10:22 AM

In a Lovejoy coupling, the spider is the insert or element that sits between the coupling halves to connect them. The 11486 spider is that insert component, and this one is made from Hytrel.

what material is this spider made from, and does that matter for how it holds up over time?

Question by: Lynn L on May 6, 2025, 5:25 PM

Hytrel is what you're getting here. It's a thermoplastic elastomer known for holding up well under flex and load cycling, so it handles the kind of repeated stress that wears out softer materials faster. For a coupling insert, the material absolutely matters since it absorbs shock and misalignment between shafts, and Hytrel does that job reliably without cracking or taking a set the way some urethane elements can.
