Molded Universal Joints From SDP/SI

Press Release  |  July 22, 2013  |  New Hyde Park, NY

SUPER-PLAST® molded universal joints offer the economy of plastic and the fastening characteristics of metal-to-metal contact.

SUPER-PLAST® molded universal joints offer the best of both worlds: the economy of plastic and the fastening characteristics of metal-to-metal contact. In addition, they feature lower inertia, greater torsional strength and higher strength-to-weight ratio than all-metal couplings of similar size. Developed for a wide variety of instrumentation applications, these joints have thick-walled molded plastic hubs for a lightweight, durable and economical design.

These joints are available single or double jointed, with the option of molded or brass slide extensions. They can have all molded construction, or nickel-plated brass spiders and inserts. All styles are available in inch and metric sizes. All SDP molded universal joints can operate at temperatures up to 180°F (85°C). Maximum angular displacement is 45°, and maximum torque rating is 60 in • lbf.
