Auniversal joint, (universal coupling,U-joint,Cardanjoint,Hardy-Spicerjoint, orHooke’s joint) is ajointorcouplingin a rigid rod that allows the rod to ‘bend’ in any direction, and is commonly used in shafts that transmitrotary motion. It consists of a pair ofhingeslocated close together, oriented at 90° to each other, connected by a cross shaft. The universal joint is not aconstant velocity joint.

WSD universal coupling is suitable for retating system which the two axis angle <45,nominal torque 11.2~1120N*m.

Features of WSD universal coupling:

1.Available in your choice of round, hex, splined, or keyway bore

2.Lubrication is required for optimal wear–boots and lubricant extenduniversal joint life

3.Max angular mislegnment:45o
