Aluminum Mold Cv Joints

Constant-velocity (CV) joints allow the drive shaft to transmit power through a variable angle, at a constant rotational speed, without a considerable increase in friction. The CV joints are also responsible for a smooth transfer of engine power regardless of the turning angle of the steering wheel. The constant-velocity joints are mainly used in front-wheel and all-wheel drive cars. Rear-wheel drive cars with independent rear suspensions typically use CV joints at the ends of the rear-axle half-shafts. Constant -velocity joints are protected by a rubber boot known as the CV gaiter. Each CV joint includes an inner and outer joint.
