AQUADRIVE AS DRIVE SHAFTS
The only drive shaft in the World with free end float
Aquadrive special drive shafts can be used to connect Jet drives, V drives, thrusters and stern-drives. They remove vibration and take out misalignment in just the same way as the complete Aquadrive, but they have one huge advantage over rubber jointed drive shafts and older universally jointed units – they allow the engine to vibrate freely fore and aft.
No more vibration transmission through rubber joints. No more of the torsional lock-up to be found on shafts with sliding splines in the centre. Just give us details of the craft, power, and length and we’ll do the rest.
Aquadrive CVT systems
are designed for use where there is no gearbox, and no drive plate to absorb the engine’s torsional vibration. All the same advantages as a complete Aquadrive, and the same unique free end float which no other drive shaft can offer.
Aquadrive triple joint shafts
Aquadrive triple joint shafts have a third joint and a support bearing partway along their length. These specialised drive shafts allow total lengths of up to 9m for installations where flexibility of engine positioning is the key.
Aquadrive extended shafts
up to 2 metres long, allowing major engine position changes.
