Universal joint shaft for CLAAS combine harvester

Universal joint shaft for CLAAS combine harvester(part no. 00 0995 837 0) isa key component of the drive system, which allows torque transmission between machine components, even when they are not in a single axis or their position relative to each other changes during operation. Equipped with cross joints (Cardan) and a telescopic element,the CLAAS universal joint shaftcompensates for changes in length and shaft angle, ensuring smooth, flexible and reliable power transmission in diverse field conditions.

Location of the universal joint shaft in a CLAAS combine harvester

CLAAS universal joint shaftis used in several key sections of the machine. It is often used in theheader drive, where it connects the combine body with the cutting unit and enables its lifting, lowering and operation on uneven terrain. Another common application is thedrive of external modules, such as maize headers or straw choppers. It can also be part of theinternal drive system of the CLAAS combine harvester, where it connects various working mechanisms, e.g. the thresher system with the chaff spreader or intermediate gears where a flexible connection is required.

Application and key functions of the universal joint shaft

The main purpose of using theuniversal joint shaft for the CLAAS combine harvesteris the effective and durable transmission of drive in conditions where variable working angles or variable distances between working elements occur. The joints allow movement in many planes, and the telescopic profile provides compensation for length changes, avoiding overloads and damage.The CLAAS universal joint shaftalso exhibits damping properties, which reduces vibration and increases the service life of other drive components. Thanks to its high resistance to dynamic loads, dust, mud and variable weather conditions, it is perfectly suited for the agricultural working environment.

CLAAS combine harvester models using universal joint shaft 00 0995 837 0

ThisCLAAS universal joint shaftis used in many combine models, depending on the function it performs. It is most commonly found in theCLAAS LEXIONseries – including models from the 400, 500, 600 and 700 groups – especially where a flexible connection between the main drive and working modules is required. It is also found inCLAAS TUCANO(300–500 series) machines, as well as in some configurations of older types of combines, such asCLAAS MEGAandCLAAS MEDION. Due to the fact that shafts differ in length, stroke and joint type, we recommend that you contact us.
