Single U-Joint Kit, Machinable, 1.745" (44.3 mm) OD, Steel

This Ruland machinable bore single friction bearing universal joint has a 1.745" outer diameter and 5.000" length. The design allows the user to put a bore size and/or geometry of their choice into each yoke or affix it directly to a surface by welding or some other method of their choice. It is best suited for applications requiring a short length and high torque (when compared to double universal joints of an equivalent OD). This single universal joint is made of a block, two pins, and two yokes. These components are manufactured to tight tolerances using proprietary processes that ensure smooth operation and high misalignment accommodation up to 45°, which is a significant improvement over commodity style single universal joints. It is made from high grade alloy steel for high torque capabilities. The user can add a boot to protect the joint from unwanted contaminants and increase service life. This single friction bearing universal joint is manufactured in the USA.
