Drang angle universal joint (both sides) min. length 1210 mm
The wide-angle cardan shaft on both sides is an essential component for efficiently transmitting power between tractor and implement, even at high angles, while ensuring greater flexibility and durability. This type of universal joint is ideal for implements requiring continuous movement, even when cornering or when the angle between tractor and implement changes.
Cardan shaft technical specifications:
- Folded length: 1210 mm, which is the minimum length of the drive shaft when folded. Make sure this length matches your specific requirements based on the distance between tractor and implement.
- Tractor-side jaw
- Dimension: 1"3/8 - 6 splines (standard for many farm tractors)
- Crosspiece: 27 x 74.6 mm
- Implement-side jaw
- Size: 1"3/8 - 6 splines (compatible with a wide range of farm implements)
- Crosshead: 27 x 74.6 mm
- Inner tube
- Shape: Triangular
- Dimensions: 36 x 4.5 mm
- Outer tube
- Shape: Triangle
- Dimensions: 43.5 x 3.4 mm
- Wide angle on both sides: This type of universal joint is designed to work at high angles on both sides, without interrupting power transmission.
Advantages of a wide-angle universal joint on both sides :
- High flexibility: This type of universal joint ensures smooth operation even when the angle between tractor and implement is highly variable, e.g. during tight turns.
- Durability: The reinforced universal joints (27 x 74.6 mm) are designed to withstand high loads and resist wear, ensuring a long drive shaft life.
- Continuous power transmission: Even at steep angles, the wide-angle drive shaft on both sides maintains constant power transmission, avoiding tool stoppages or breakdowns.
- Universal compatibility: With its standardized dimensions of 1"3/8 - 6 splines, this universal joint is compatible with a wide variety of tractors and farm implements, making it versatile for different farming tasks.
- Safety: A well-matched universal joint reduces the risk of breakage or failure, ensuring safe long-term use.
Typical use:
This type of universal joint is often used with implements requiring continuous transmission even when the angle changes, such as:
- Rotary mowers
- Windrowers
- Balers
- Spreaders
- Agricultural shredders
Maintenance tips :
To maximize the life of your wide-angle universal joint, we recommend :
- Regularly check the universal joints for wear or excessive play.
- Lubricate the universal joint pivot pointsfrequently, especially the universal joints and wide-angle areas, to avoid excessive friction.
- Ensure proper alignment between tractor and implement to minimize unnecessary stress on the universal joint.
