Lengthen and shorten these telescoping U-joints to fit your application. They’re a good choice when you need accurate and repeatable motion because they have zero backlash (no play), so there’s no motion lost when your shafts change direction. This keeps machines running smoothly. As double U-joints, they connect and transfer torque between two shafts that are either parallel to each other or are misaligned at an angle. They also keep parallel shafts moving in sync by making the output shaft move at the same rate as the input shaft. With ball bearings, there’s less friction than pin-and-block joints, so they run at higher speeds. Made of stainless steel, they balance strength without sacrificing corrosion resistance.

Since they come lubricated, you won’t need to lubricate them during installation. Drill holes through the U-joint and your shafts and then connect using spring pins.

Your shafts’ misalignment will affect the speed and torque the U-joint will be able to transmit. The more the shafts are misaligned, the less speed and torque the U-joint will be able to transmit.

Since these U-joints have zero backlash (no play), there’s no motion lost when your shafts change direction, so machines move smoothly with more accurate, repeatable motion. As double U-joints, they connect and transfer torque between two shafts that are either parallel to each other or are misaligned at an angle. They also keep parallel shafts moving in sync by making the output shaft move at the same rate as the input shaft. And because their ball bearings operate with less friction than pin-and-block joints, they run at higher speeds. Made of stainless steel, these U-joints balance strength with good corrosion resistance.

They come lubricated, so you won’t need to lubricate them during installation. Connect them to shafts using the included set screws. Unlike U-joints that use spring pins, there’s no drilling required.
