Product Transportation and Sales Details Table



Drive Shaft Parts, also known as Propshaft Components,are essential parts in the automotive transmission system. Their main function is to transmit the power generated by the engine efficiently and stably to the wheels, ensuring that the vehicle can run smoothly and adapt to various road conditions and driving situations.

I.Main Components

  1. Dive Shaft Tube
    • Function: Acts as the primary component for transmitting torque and rotational motion, bearing the power generated by the engine and transmitting it to the wheels.
    • Material: Generally made of high-strength steel or lightweight, high-strength materials like carbon fiber to enhance transmission efficiency and reduce weight.
  2. Drive Shaft U Joint (propshaft universal joint)
    • Function: Allows the propshaft to transmit torque with angular changes, ensuring continuous and smooth power transfer.
    • Structure: Typically comprises a cross shaft, bearings, bushings, and dust covers.
  3. Center Bearing

    • Function: Supports the weight of the propshaft and allows it to swing within a certain range, reducing vibration and noise.
    • Location: Often positioned at the middle or ends of the propshaft.
  4. Slip Yoke

    • Function: Connects the propshaft to the transmission or differential, allowing for some variation in length to accommodate the vehicle's suspension system.
    • Features: Incorporates sliding and locking functions to ensure propshaft stability.
  5. Flange

    • Function: A crucial component for connecting the propshaft to other parts (like the transmission or differential), ensuring continuous and reliable power transfer.
    • Structure: Made of high-strength steel, featuring precise bolt holes and locating pin holes.

II. Performance Characteristics

  1. High StrengthDrive Shaft Parts are typically made of high-strength materials to ensure reliability and durability in harsh conditions.
  2. Lightweight: By using lightweight materials (such as carbon fiber) and optimized designs, the weight of the propshaft is reduced, improving fuel economy and acceleration performance.
  3. High Precision: The fit between components is very precise, ensuring smooth and continuous power transfer.
  4. Corrosion Resistance: Corrosion-resistant materials or surface treatments are used to enhance the corrosion resistance of propshaft components.

III.Propshaft Supply-Application Scenarios

Tiegu drive shafts are widely used in various automobiles and machinery, especially in situations requiring high power and torque transmission. For example:

  1. High-Performance Vehicles: Such as race cars and sports cars, which require rapid and smooth power transfer.
  2. Heavy-Duty Trucks: Which need to withstand greater loads and more complex conditions.
  3. Construction Machinery: Like excavators and loaders, which require high power and torque transmission.
