PROBLEM

Our customer needed to connect an existing gear and water jet. This installation had two different flange connections, neither of which matched standard universal joint flanges.

SOLUTION

We reviewed the application to identify the proper size shaft, then evaluated the flange configurations. We were able to design flanges to match the existing connections.

In our shop, we were able to press and weld these custom flanges onto tube yokes, thus completing an assembly without any extra hardware.

This universal-joint shaft dropped right into our customer’s application, bolted in place ready to run. If you have an oddball installation, give us a call—and we’ll see if we can help you.
