The Maxxus® Universal Joint is a technically advanced universal driveshaft designed for the toughest applications in the metals industry.
Universal driveshafts in general offer many advantages over gear spindles. Universal driveshafts reduce chatter, handle more misalignment, and extend your lubrication schedule. But the Maxxus® Universal Joint is unique. Its block design allows the joints to carry more torque for a given swing diameter than competing yoke type universal joints. The Maxxus Universal Joint gives you the most torque capacity for a given space. It is easier to assemble and maintain than competing products.
Features & Benefits
