Buy PTO shafts with wide-angle joint? Choose a PTO shaft with a single wide-angle or a double wide-angle joint. Opt for wide-angle PTO shafts from Walterscheid, Bondioli & Pavesi, Rotaro, or Weasler.
A wide-angle PTO shaft is designed for situations where the shaft operates at an angle of more than 5°. It is also recommended to use a wide-angle PTO shaft when the angle between the tractor and the machine changes continuously. For example, a mower that is regularly raised and lowered.
From an operating angle of more than 5°, it can already be wise to use a wide-angle PTO shaft. A standard PTO shaft has square cross joints, whereas a wide-angle PTO shaft is built differently to reduce shock and vibration. A wide-angle PTO shaft can be used up to 25°. A standard PTO shaft should only be used up to 5°.
There are several brands of wide-angle PTO shafts. They are very popular and therefore produced by various manufacturers. The brands we offer have been selected for their price, quality, and durability. The most well-known brands are: Walterscheid, Weasler, Bondioli & Pavesi, and Rotaro.
In exceptional cases, you may need a double wide-angle PTO shaft. This only applies to situations where the machine must continuously operate at a large angle in relation to the tractor or construction machine.
