Cardan adapter 8x6 is used to connect the cardan shaft to the power take-off shaft (PTO)tractor or to the power take-off shaft (PTO) of the machine. (//tractor-service.com)
The main advantage of the adapter (adapter) is that with its help you can easily install one cardan shaft on atractor and working devices with different PTO and VPM shafts without replacing the end fork on the cardan shaft.
The main dimensions of the adapter are made in accordance with GOST 3480-78 (Power take-off shaft of agricultural tractors and power take-off shaft of agricultural machines). Splined shafts and splined bushings of adapters are made in accordance with GOST 1139-80 and ISO500-79.
A special feature of the adapters of our production is a special fastening installed on the adapter. With the help of this special attachment, the adapter is immovably installed on the shaft, and this gives the following advantages:
Axial runout caused by the mobility of the adapter on the PTO or VPM shaft is excluded, which in turn prevents the shaft from breaking the internal splines in the cardan shaft fork.
The adapter is firmly fixed on the shaft of the PTO or VPM and does not allow it to slip off the shaft during operation or get lost, which often happens with adapters with finger locks.
