Intermediate shaft

The intermediate shaft transmits torque from the gearbox output to the half shaft. In addition to bridging the asymmetrical distance, there are solutions that enable dynamic length compensation. Hirschvogel offers a wide range of products for this purpose – from raw parts to ready-for-assembly intermediate shafts, including coating and assembly, for example with bearings. By combining various forging processes and machining, the geometric design options are extremely diverse and can be implemented individually according to customer requirements.
