Installing a Supplementary Axle
The greater thickness of the tube depends on the class, i.e. on the torque that the original shaft has to transmit and on the design
of the driveline (torque, ratios of kinematic chain, power axle load).
A reference value for the thickness of the tube of a general validity cannot be given. When, for example, a tube of a larger diameter
is to be used, its thickness should theoretically be reduced until the torsional strength of the original tube is achieved. It should
however be noted that, to determine the thickness of the tube, the following points are to be taken into account: the size of the
male element of the universal joint, the possible necessity of adapters and the sizes of the tubes available.
Therefore the thickness of the tube should be agreed upon as each occasion arises with the workshops authorised by the
manufacturers of the transmission shaft depending on its dimensions (i.e. size of the universal joint).
The minimum operating length (from flange to flange) must not fall below 600 mm for the sliding sections and 300 mm for the
intermediate sections.
