4 Grooved Bearing Universal Joint

Product Item:HXST-1801

Model: 4 Grooved Bearing Universal Joint

Grooved Bearings: The presence of four grooved bearings or bushings helps reduce friction and wear by providing a low-friction interface between the rotating components

Installation: The universal joint should be designed for easy installation and secure attachment to the shafts using appropriate fasteners or locking mechanisms

Application: 4-grooved bearing universal joints are commonly used in various applications, including automotive drivelines, industrial machinery, marine equipment, agricultural machinery, and more

Description

A 4-grooved bearing universal joint, also known as a cross-and-bearing universal joint or plain bearing universal joint, is a mechanical coupling used to transmit rotary motion between two shafts that are not aligned with each other. It consists of four grooved bearings or bushings that facilitate smooth rotation between the connected components.

Here is a description of a 4-grooved bearing universal joint:

Design: The 4-grooved bearing universal joint typically consists of two yokes or flanges and a center cross or spider. The center cross has four arms, each containing a grooved bearing.
Material: These universal joints are commonly made from durable materials such as steel or alloy steel for strength and longevity.
Size: 4-grooved bearing universal joints come in various sizes to accommodate different shaft diameters and lengths.
Load Capacity: The joint should have a specified load capacity indicating the maximum amount of torque it can handle without failure.
Misalignment Capability: Like other universal joints, the 4-grooved bearing universal joint is designed to accommodate angular misalignment between the input and output shafts, allowing for flexibility in shaft alignment.
Grooved Bearings: The presence of four grooved bearings or bushings helps reduce friction and wear by providing a low-friction interface between the rotating components.
Lubrication: Proper lubrication of the grooved bearings is crucial for smooth operation and to prevent excessive wear. Some joints may require periodic greasing or have sealed lubrication systems.
Installation: The universal joint should be designed for easy installation and secure attachment to the shafts using appropriate fasteners or locking mechanisms.
Application: 4-grooved bearing universal joints are commonly used in various applications, including automotive drivelines, industrial machinery, marine equipment, agricultural machinery, and more.
Specific product attributes may vary depending on the manufacturer and intended application. Therefore, it's recommended to refer to the product specifications provided by the manufacturer for detailed information on a particular 4-grooved bearing universal joint
