The driveshaft is used to connect the diesel engine’s transmission to a quintiplex positive displacement 4-cylinder pump. The OEM was experiencing reliability and delivery issues with their existing driveshaft, causing costly production delays.
(33,188 lb.ft.) to meet the challenging application requirements. Rugged-duty J-Series driveshafts are specifically designed to provide years of reliable performance at tough hydraulic fracturing drill sites around the world. J-Series models withstand extreme environmental conditions including hot and cold temperature swings, snow and rain, and dust and mud.
J-Series units feature Ameridrives’ exclusive Inter-Sealed splined center section. A wing-style bearing design allows quicker access to the bearings for easy maintenance in the field or at the shop. A one-piece yoke reduces the number of extra bolted connections and serrations to maintain. Loading across the entire bearing surface is achieved as a result of FEA analysis, insuring balanced deflection between the yoke and cross.
All units are designed and built in Ameridrives’ world-class San Marcos, Texas facility conveniently located in proximity to major North and Central America oil and gas shale plays.
