Stainless-Steel U-Joints

Misalignment strains bearings and other mechanical components, causing accelerated wear and premature part failure. Couplings can resolve these issues, but there are specific motion control applications where a standard collar will not suffice.
Universal joint couplings have a unique design that accommodates misalignment in applications involving single rotating parts and uncommon angles. Operational efficiency is further enhanced by a zero-backlash design offering accurate misalignment compensation.

Zero-Backlash Universal Joint Couplings 

Ondrives.US offers Zero Backlash Universal Joints in various bore sizes and torque capacities to accommodate your machine’s needs. All stainless steel construction resists corrosion, extending the life of your universal joint couplings. The true zero backlash design delivers smoother operation for improved motion control and mechanical performance.

• Single U-Joint Couplings: Our most popular universal joint, designed for single-angle motion control applications.
• Double U-Joint Couplings: Designed to bend in one direction and turn back on itself, allowing shafts to go parallel.
• Telescopic U-Joint Couplings: Designed for specialty applications where the motor or driven elements move in an axial motion.

Request modified or custom stainless-steel U-joints for applications requiring non-standard materials and inch or metric bore sizes. Our application engineers also created CAD drawings and a shaft coupling misalignment guide to help you select the right product for your application.
