Vehicular Universal Joint

A flexible connection designed for vehicular applications which permits rotary motion to be transmitted between two shafts located at an angle to each other. The angle between the shafts may be continually varied within certain limits; the connecting ends must have either a flange, hub, or splined stub shaft; the plain portion of a splined stub shaft must not exceed the length of the splines. Excludes drive or propeller shafts with join (s) at one or both ends. See universal joint, geared.
