GKN Land Systems’ latest inverted slip driveshaft is a service-free design
GKN Land Systems has launched a range of service-free driveshafts at Conexpo. Developed exclusively for off-highway applications, the Synergy range of inverted slip design driveshafts combines the benefits of GKN’s Rockford and Bruneck ranges.

Doing so has allowed the firm to reduce overall driveshaft weight without compromising on strength and durability.

The new range enjoys simpler installation by using a four-bolt flange on both ends of the driveshaft. Advanced sealing technology combined with optimised greasing for the life of the shaft has led the firm to a service-free solution for off-highway applications.
